She may well be doing some exaggeration but my understanding is she brought either a thousand or thousands of pages of documentation to support her claims.


@Marp    That alone brings her credibility into question.  She either stole these thousands of documents or copied them on company time, using their equipment and supplies, which is also theft. 


So how else can you prove your case ?

I personally really hate FB. I, however, can't say that I think her "whistle-blowing" is a good idea - at all. It sets a very bad precedent and is, from what I can tell, a real mis-use of whistle-blower laws. Companies should have the right to conduct any kind of internal study that they want---and keep the results "internal" to the company - if they want to. Period. It's definitely not OK for employees (or ex-employees) to break their confidentiality agreements and share internal knowledge or internal communications with others--much less the public at large. Very bad precedent is being set.

Greed has led the world -- not just this country -- into territory without principles, humility and goodness.

I'm not sure what her goal is.....she is being advised by

an "O" operative.   Now both him and Zuck are good friends and

are motivated the same.

 

She pulled all those documents from the Company and I just read that it was someone at FB that actually brought down all those sites yesterday....still not sure the motivation behind it yet.

What does that mean? Are you trying to make this political? It's no wonder that the boards are being closed.

There’s a lot of info out there if you look regarding how the algorithms used by social media such as FB (but not exclusively FB) encourages conflict and division because the more controversial the post, the more views and clicks and comments - and that is what drives revenue. It’s a form of manipulation and I’m seriously re-evaluating my usage. The problem is the damage done to the positive aspects such as support groups and charities that need these outlets. FB was designed on the premise that it was a safe space for friends and family to gather. That disappeared years ago.

@Marp 

 

I can attest to that!

 

I had a minor car accident where the airbag shattered my left arm in several places and I had non-unions of the bones in my radius and ulna, with titanium plates and screws to hold it together.

 

After multiple surgeries and bone grafts, I still have a titanium plate holding bones together (24 years later).

 

I sued Chrysler and when we subpoenaed their records of tests, etc., their tests showed that the airbag would go off at 9MPH instead of the 20MPH the car maker and airbag maker claimed.

 

I won the lawsuit.....big.

@BalletBabe 

 

I got off facebook during the 2016 election.  I just can't take all the snarky insults and these are supposed to be friends.


I like the boards here and there is anothe forum I read... but social media isn't worth the trouble IMO.  

 

*yes.  sad to learn these boards are closing.  I have been posting for a really long time....
