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.
