I don't work in the industry, but what would you say to the people that do work at Meta who have good intentions and rationalize it by thinking to themselves, 'At least I can try to limit how bad they are, and if they didn't hire a good person like me, they would just hire a bad person doesn't care about the public.'?

- mrguyorama 4y agoWhat would a facebook run only by a person who "doesn't care about the public" look like and how could it be worse than knowingly manipulating what depressed teenages see on their feed, which is a thing current facebook did? If there IS anyone "good" in facebook, they don't have nearly the effect they hope, facebook isn't being reigned in at all.
