When a Senior Manager Talks about What Top Dogs Know That Could Come Back and Bite Hard

November 12, 2021

I read “Facebook Knew What It Was Doing, Eric Schmidt Says.” Of course, Facebook knew what it had been doing. The company is effectively the personal sandbox of Mr. Zuckerberg. The write up says:

Facebook, now known as Meta Platforms Inc., “went a little too far on the revenue side and not enough on the judgment side,” Schmidt said in an interview on Bloomberg Television. “You can see that from the Facebook leaks that have been occurring.”

This astute observation could be the verbal equivalent of a dog that bites its master. Google executives have been somewhat vague in their public statements and Congressional testimony about certain Google practices.

The top dog in a company knows what’s going on, eh? What do Google senior managers know about Google’s boots-on-the-ground practices? Probably a lot.
