Facebook Employees Are Quitting or Switching Departments Over Ethical Concerns
I have wondered for a long time why Facebook employees were even around. It's not like the Cambridge Analytica scandal was the first time an ethically problematic issue had happened because of the way Facebook was designed to work. The people working on the platform created all these issues in some way or another (due to not understanding the implications or management direction).<p>My guess is that employees of Facebook mostly stay for the money, with a second reason being for some kind of exposure on working on things on "planet scale". I find it difficult to understand anyone being fine with Facebook's ethics all these years and then changing their minds now. It is quite weird.<p>Facebook is a soulless company. If you're a Facebook employee and haven't understood that yet, I cannot even sympathize with you (while being frustrated and worried about the implications for billions of humans).
