Careless People: A Cautionary Tale of Power, Greed, and Lost Idealism by Sarah Wynn-Williams, 2025.
Another MAGA Dystopia Book.
This fascinating book was mostly about the disfunction of Mark Zuckerberg and Facebook as told my an ex-employee in upper management. The book has become a best seller despite the legal efforts of Mark Zuckerberg and Meta to block the author from publishing her book. More Facebook censorship. It's a tale of how things have gone terribly wrong with social media in the last decade.
The author Sarah Wynn-Williams was the former director of public policy at Facebook and she sure had a lot to say about that company and the people in charge. It certainly was a critical account of the internal corporate culture and decision making process during her time with Facebook.
The book goes into very critical detail concerning Facebook's response to global social political events around the world including genocide, human trafficking, teen mental health issues and Mark Zuckerberg's alleged efforts to provide China with censorship capabilities. The author also describes the many sexual harassment and other harmful workplace behaviors of several senior staff executives.
It also goes into detail describing the Facebook support given to Trump in the 2016 election and it became obvious that he would never have won without the misinformation support from Zuckerberg. It was enough to make him want to run for president himself especially how he saw how much trump has enriched himself and of course there is never enough money for Zuck.
He also cheats at board games with is staff to ensure he always wins.
I previously read Broken Code... another MAGA Dystopia Book about Facebook.
