The Economist Zucks Facebook
October 8, 2021
Time to unfollow or defriend or just erase the Zuck?
“Facebook Is Nearing a Reputational Point of No Return” illustrates the turning of the capitalistic worm. The newspaper which sure looks like a magazine to me states:
Facebook is nearing a reputational point of no return.
Then this wowza:
If rational argument alone is no longer enough to get Facebook out of its hole, the company should look hard at its public face. Mark
Zuckerberg, Facebook’s all-powerful founder, made a reasoned statement after this week’s wave of anger. He was ignored or ridiculed and increasingly looks like a liability.
Facebook has been chugging along since 2004. Finger pointing, legal action, and the Winkelvossing have been stirred into Cambridge Analytica, apologies, and savories like WhatsApp as a new Dark Web.
Suddenly the Zuck is a liability.
Seventeen years and counting. Insight takes time to arrive.
