Reminder that Mark Zuckerberg really really really wants you not to read Careless People by Sarah Wynn-Williams.
So, obviously, whatever you do, don't read it or little Mark will get upset.

@democracy for anyone who can't buy a copy where you are, you can download it from z-lib.gd
Too late. A fun book, already lent pit to several friends. @pluralistic is right. Mark Zuckerberg is a Creep.
@lemgandi @pluralistic Having read the history of early Failbook from his student time, he already then was an utter creep.
I don't think she's been allowed to speak about the book at all. I remember quite a few podcast appearances she had to cancel as it was coming out
@meanderingok Then we speak for her. I ordered the paperback version.
Fuck Meta and Mark Zuckerberg.
Fortunately #Meta’s legal action has been entirely successful in preventing you from finding out about Sarah Wynne-Williams’ Sunday Times bestselling memoir #CarelessPeople, published by Flatiron Books.
@nick_appleyard Saw a post yesterday, fella who’d left his “Meta Raybans” in a cab or bus. Immediately thought “somebody will stamp on them”.

@nick_appleyard Thank you, Nick. It is good to know that the Zuck can't have it all his own way, and that caring people can still access Sarah Wynn-Williams' Sunday Times Bestselling book 'Careless People', published by Flatiron Books. @luciedigitalni

It's worth the read.
May I suggest checking it out at your local library 😊
I'm in the middle of a couple other books already on Libby,but I added it to my to-read list. Thanks for the recommendation!
I read it...You should, too.
It's really good, I'm a out 1/4 of the way through. These sociopaths are unhinged.
They shouldn't manage a Denny's, much less a social media website.
"We’re about to travel to the one country in the world where there’s an open arrest warrant for Mark Zuckerberg. And Mark thinks this is the time to show us his fake gangsta handshakes."
😐
They've got all the money in the world, yet they're still looking to squeeze more out of people… instead of focusing on empowerment... Elon, Mark... Etc

I would have publicly defied Meta on this, blasted them from the stage, and taken steps to ensure that any judgement would be impossible to collect on.
It would not be difficult to ensure than any further harassment over this by Meta would create a huge "Striesand effect," tons of very nasty publicity, and hopefully encourage people to close Facebook, IG, and Whatsapp accounts and block ads on FB and IG if they feel they cannot.
Adblock and NoScript in fact are effective ways to take money out of Zuckeberg's pockets. So is blocking all content from FB embedded in other websites.
Sensitive content
@LukefromDC It has already created a Streisand Effect, without Sarah saying a word, due to the animosity stirred up by the OTT stupidity of the lawsuit. @luciedigitalni
adding to my reading list and will grab it from the library on my next visit…hopefully
thanks for posting the recommendation for Careless People a while back. Just finished the book and am even more glad to left the facebook platforms. The idea that the more power folks acquire the less responsible they become is sadly all to true:( #books

@jackson_sweater you're welcome. I get a lot of excellent book recommendations from this website so I try to return the favour when I can.

Attached: 1 image Tämä kirja kertoo siitä miten kammottava työpaikka Facebook (nykyinen Meta) on. Millään muulla kuin rahalla ja vallalla ei ole väliä. Kirjasta löytyi netistä varsin osuva blogikirjoitus: https://doctorow.medium.Juha Haataja (Mastodon)
well, that was an easy decision to make... ordered a copy 😀
don’t tempt me
usually I have words for motivations like "Make X cry" but I make an exception for the facebook guy, same for the orange monster child and mr what's his stupid face.
I oddly have little worries for billionaire's feelings. I mean, I don't want them to do bad things, but honestly if they can't take that people are rude, then... why would I care? I doubt anyone is really being rude really. At least not anything I'd call rude, but apparently Finnish folk songs have bad words in them. Heck, so do American ones.
Already did! And yes I recommend it:

Oh no! Now it's in my shopping cart 
it is a horrifying read.
I will need to read it again, but will have to brace myself

straight away borrowed the book from Libby after reading this. The fact it is on Libby without a waiting list is a sign this news needs to be further spread.

I can recommend the audiobook, read by Wynn-Williams.
I also recommend not using FB or any apps owned by this vile sociopath. It's hard to say no but we absolutely need to.

Digital Gangsters: The Inside Story of How Greed, Lies and Big Tech Broke Democracy
In an extract from his book, Ian Lucas reveals how dark forces have interfered in our politics on both sides of the AtlanticByline Times
man, that cat's not just out of the bag, it's moved to Canada and has a whole new group of friends now.
If you need another reason besides shark attacks and midnight escapes from a ruined castle.
Actually I don't need to read it to know that in a just world Zuckerberg would be in jail for life and all his websites and products shut down.
Also that US law makers are responsible for the toxic landscape that gives corporations more rights than people and refuses to properly regulate them.
"Libertarian" politics and "Liberal" economics lead to Fascist Capitalism treating people as things, like slaves, and serfs.
This is way beyond any lines that should have been drawn by now.
Meta is explicitly taking part in fascism.
And the fact that I ever used anything FB/Insta makes me downright sick.
i will not change my statement

is anybody aware of translations of this book? There is quite a bit of material in English that elaborates on Meta's problems, but I observe that people that do not speak English are much less aware of these problems.
I guess the gag order prevents the author from pursuing that it gets translated :(
@jschwart yes, this. I recently learned that India practically runs on Facebook, IG, and WhatsApp for all of their business and communications (I’m pretty sure that this true for other countries). @luciedigitalni
That's the exact reason why I did read Careless People by Sarah Wynn-Williams and then deleted my Meta accounts. #FuckZuck
Just borrowed the e-book from the library. It was the only copy available out of 36 total.
And most definitely Do Not recommend that your library get a copy. IMHO print format preferred in case ebooks get yanked by court order.
Introducing the panel, Cadwalladr said: “I think this might be a Hay first, in which we have an author in a hostage situation. Blink once if you can hear us, Sarah, twice if [Mark] Zuckerberg is an asshole.”
🤣 I don't want to read about Mark's great accomplishments in lawbreaking, but can I purchase 700 copies of the book to be delivered to his doorstep?
Also
Meta filed a sanctions motion alleging that Wynn-Williams violates the emergency arbitration order “any time she appears in public in a place where she should know that her book is available for sale and her presence might draw attention to it”.
In her next book signing, she should be hidden behind a veil, in complete privacy for the whole thing. Devotees can submit the holy text under the edge of it for her to privately and not publically sign.

I'm currently at the point in 2016 where an unnamed board member suggested supporting fascist parties in Europe, to prevent Facebook from being regulated. My money is on Peter Thiel.
@alxndr Does that include Stalmer's Labour party?
The News Agents podcast replayed part of their interview with her tonight. Link should be to the right point, some 25:45 in.
