She is almost as bad as the people she writes about unfortunately. She enabled the Facebook machine and even when she saw highly unethical things she wouldn't leave because she didn't want to miss out on her unvested stock. She wasn't some lowly employee getting coerced into taking actions she didn't agree with - she was a highly ranked exec flying on private jets with Zuck because she wanted the money. She could have taken another high ranked tech job at any time. Instead she put her life and unborn child's life at risk multiple times. For the money. | ||||||||

I think this is the wrong take. I don’t agree that people are good or bad, I think actions are, and there are lots of reasons and motivations a person can end up enabling a bad situation, some of those motivations can even at the time be justified. I do believe Meta is very bad for the world and has way too much power. Anything that can get people to open their eyes to this is important. Dividing those that are trying isn’t helping. | ||||||||

all pretty much true - but she wrote this book, which goes a fair way to redeem her in my view. also, she tended to at least try to temper the worst tendencies of the executive team. | ||||||||
