Facebook is the defense contractor that is building America's Great Firewall and social credit system, so it makes sense that there is a revolving door with the authoritarian regime.
I’m not familiar with either of those two projects. Perhaps the latter is the aggregation of numerous “good customer” scores, plus actual credit rating, plus the no-fly list. But I haven’t heard about an actual program that implements a social credit score that FB is implementing.
Earlier quoted context omitted.
for facebook optics is not a thing. they know they have a stranglehold on people addicted to their products, and advertisers who pay through the nose to sell things to those addicts. Honestly, why bother with optics? No one's going to like the company ever again except their employees, but no business or politician or organization is going to not take facebook's call.
Why bother with optics? Well, for one thing, presumably they still need to recruit people once in a while (including people with lots and lots of options).
I for one don't let Facebook use me. This makes little difference to me.

edit: sorry if you don't like the truth (I know that a lot of you commit to only one political party, but still... the truth is the truth.).
