       Meta has become a more and more disgusting company, and its punitive censorship of a former executive is just one example of why. https://www.theguardian.com/technology/2026/may/31/meta-legal-action-forces-facebook-whistleblower-to-stay-silent-at-hay-festival

       It also reminds me to STRONGLY recommend that you read Sarah Wynn-Williams' "Careless People" -- a book that conclusively explains how Facebook became such a vile operation.

       @dangillmor Trying to remember the name of the woman who wrote the early SV analysis of the bro culture. She lives in the East Bay.

       @dangillmor I applaud the strategy of a performative public shaming of Meta though

       @dangillmor And somehow this is the same company that Mozilla decided to partner with on ad tracking in the browser—now a project with Google and Apple involved too, to drive ad money away from legit sites and toward search, social, and app stores.https://monopoly-report.com/podcast/episode-74-the-attribution-cartel-why-privacy-safe-is-not-what-it-s-made-up-to-be/d59dce94-05d6-4e60-a5c0-95727176a45f #privacy #BigTech #oligopoly

       @dangillmor Meta has always been a disgusting company. It started out with MZ being a creeper at university. Shortly thereafter they allied with scammy pay-to-play web games. Meta is all about finding new and innovative ways to be creepy and evil. They should not have been allowed to buy good things like Oculus.

       @dangillmor I haven't read it (#CarelessPeople), but this was a good reminder to at least buy it.Done.
