I can't believe his PR handlers let that get out.

As someone else said in the comments already, today's testimony wasn't about whether or not Facebook does research, it was about them hiding the results when they didn't support whatever drivel FB marketing puts out about changing the world for the good of all mankind.

This is so incredibly on brand for Zuckerberg (and Sandberg). This sort of gaslighting FUD is exactly what they always do when they get caught lying. They just lie more.




Let's not forget Zuckerberg called his users "dumb f*cks."

But, we're supposed to believe his contempt is gone and he cares now.

If anything his arrogance is probably far higher nowadays than it was before because he has so much power.
