Facebook legal trouble worsens as fresh documents surfaces

Must Read

Facebook may face more legal troubles as on Friday, a collection of 17 news outlets began publishing a series of stories called “The Facebook Papers”. This whole operation was made in part by Frances Haugen, who was a data engineer working at Facebook. She is now a whistleblower, criticizing the company for its role in destabilizing society.

The consortium consists of companies such as CNN and The Wall Street Journal. They are already dissecting and interpreting the material in order to educate their audience about Facebook’s malpractices.

A crisis is nothing new for Facebook, There have been many cases throughout the company’s history where persons have been calling out against the company. Over the last 5 years, the attacks have intensified. 

They are also hitting closer to home as their own employees are now fed up with the company. Topics such as free speech, monopoly, and data privacy are current criticisms that the company will always have to deal with.

There have been talks that the company is currently considering a branding change to turn a new chapter in the company’s future. But is that enough to rid the company of its legal troubles or clean up its image somewhat in the public’s eye? Time will tell what the future will hold.

Bloomberg released a post showing that Facebook’s user growth is on the decline in the US. They are still the world’s largest company but for any internet company. Evolutionary dynamics might take its course as it’s hard to stay at the top in the tech world
