#3Irony is Facebook will not attract the talent it needs to work constructively on these unsolvable problems.
It will attract thd clueless and the most ambitious. People who are ready to defend it for their own profit.
Its a trap where the hole they are in just keeps growing deeper.

#4Another great investigative piece from the NYT on one of their direct competitors for revenue. At this point it feels like FB's problem is they let the "rabble" in instead of charging $40/mo cover to affluent Westerners.
Cynical take yes, but the volume of NYT has me thinking of the boy who cried wolf.

You’re aware that the NYT collects millions from Facebook in an invite-only revenue deal[1], right? The fact of the matter is, they’re so arrogant that these sort of articles don’t bother them at all. The whole faux-outrage thing and the song-and-dance with regulators is just seen as part of the process.
Smart people need to stop working at Facebook. Wait a few years, and all of our problems will be solved.

Smart people want money and prestige. There is always a perspective to justify anything. They will sleep fine at night.

Engineers used to be offered an "Iron Ring" (or other similar token) to symbolize their responsibility to human welfare, even at the cost of personal achievement/merit https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Iron_Ring
Maybe we have to teach some of these upstarts about Therac-25 and depress another generation just to keep the harm from spreading :(

That’s about as much prestige as working for a tobacco company.

"Smart people want money and prestige."
I'd question your definition of the word smart in this context.
