Facebook whistleblower Frances Haugen confirms our worst fears

Jill Filipovic writes that former Facebook's employee Frances Haugen's testimony about the social media giant before Congress Tuesday was "damning" and it reiterated accusations that have been heard for a long time. "The question now is whether American politicians will stand up to one of the most powerful companies in the world, or whether they'll continue to allow Facebook to rake in profits at the expense of the public -- because many of them benefit from the misinformation campaigns Facebook allows," she says.
