This shouldn’t be surprising to anyone. The only thing meta cares about is money
“national security”. On Facebook. Okay guys. A better title would be "Zuck offered to completely legally sell their data (yes it’s their’s , read the ToS) to China in a completely legal bid to gain entry into China. It’s not even alleged that he broke any laws.
The real problem is that the US doesn’t have any digital data privacy laws, so ToSs for these services can contain whatever the host wants, and they can do whatever they want with the data. But that will never happen.
Bingo.
The idea that CEO’s will put morals over profits is hopelessly naive.
If you want companies to act morally, you need to implement legislation and be willing to enforce that legislation. And not small million dollar fines, serious fines like 10% of revenue and personal liability and even jail time for executives.
But the American public only cares about having the stock market go up. They don’t care about their data.
So the exact same reason they tried to ban tiktok…except this one actually happened.
Doesn’t matter at this point. He’ll pay Trump another 1 million dollars and this news will simply vanish.
Tiktok is considered a National Security threat that must be banned because it will give our data to China. Let’s see if Zucc faces absolutely any consequences. I won’t hold my breath
sell their data (yes it’s their’s , read the ToS)
What if the TOS was illegal?

Why not ?
What do you mean?
What if the TOS was illegal why not ?
Or why not what if the TOS was illegal?
Is that treason? Punishable by hanging from a tie?
Very first thought was “surely that’s treason”.
I must look up the legal definition.
What’s a Senate Zuck? Is that the model they use for hearings?
Exactly, this model:
Zuck can go suck a fuck!
