Also interesting there was no concern about the "evilness" of Facebook. I could never work at Facebook no matter how much they offered. You could say they are "in the business of making money" but their actions (or lack thereof) has direct impacts on entire countries usually for the worse.
Meta offering the highest salary could be because people actually do care about this, and so Meta needs to pay more for people to think it’s worthwhile working there.
Why do you think Facebook are so evil? I understand that their main product has negative effects on society, but so does every social media platform (including LinkedIn and Twitter).
More than the other platforms, Facebook has tried to moderate and reduce harmful content. They have much larger teams working on this both algorithmically and with human moderators.
If your issue is with their tracking and data privacy issues, what are the harms caused by that?
I’m asking just as much out of ignorance as I am asking to challenge you. There’s a strong narrative that Facebook and Zuckerberg are evil and it looks like dogma to me at this point. Why is TikTok not receiving the same level of scrutiny?
If someone were to give Zuckerberg the benefit of the doubt, you could argue that Facebook has brought huge positives to this world. They established social media. They created a tool that lets you up to date with friends and stay more connected with these people than was ever possible before. Perhaps any tool like that was inevitably going to come with negative effects.
