An Ugly Truth: Inside Facebook's Battle for Domination by Sheera Frenkel

4.0

Classic case of a corporation choosing profits over ethics and integrity (seems to be the way with capitalism). At every turn Zuck and co. prioritized eyeballs and engagement over people's well-being (were are talking to the point of assisting the Rohinga Genocide and electing Donald Trump because it was good ad revenue and numbers of people on Zuck's platform. Facebook manipulated social bonds and allowed the worst actors to exploit friend networks, to make a buck and market share, for nefarious political purposes. Good going Zuck, you are demonstrating why these monopolies need to have heavy regulation or need to be nationalized.
