Team,
For five blissful hours on Monday, Facebook was down. It was their greatest contribution to the health and safety of our country in a long time.
The website crash comes at a time when more information is being revealed publicly about the intentional choices the company makes to put profit over people. A company whistleblower has just revealed how the algorithm intentionally creates conflict in users to drive engagement and maximize profit.
I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again: Facebook is a monopoly with monopoly power. It dominates an industry that has tremendous influence over our lives and for too long has operated without regulation.
We’re going to change that. We’re working hard to pass legislation that will break up Facebook’s monopoly and keep their activities in check to create a safe and equitable internet for all.
