The Streisand Effect is in full force now with "Careless People," Sarah Wynn Williams' memoir about her time as director of global public policy at Facebook — the book is now at No. 3 on Amazon's bestsellers list. Former colleague Katie Harbath, who was Facebook's public policy director for global elections, recalls things differently to Wynn Williams, and says the book is "riddled with factual inaccuracies and exaggerations." Here's her post, "Careless People is Careless," on her Anchor Change Substack. "For those who didn’t work at the company or with Sarah, this book is a page-turner," she says. "Meta choosing to seek arbitration to block Sarah’s ability to promote it helps feed the intrigue for what is in it. (It is also ironic for Meta to be complaining about her not fact-checking the book when they just got rid of their fact-checking program.)"

'Last Wednesday, Meta successfully obtained a ruling blocking whistleblower Sarah Wynn-Williams from promoting her memoir Careless People: A Cautionary Tale of Power, Greed, and Lost Idealism. Today, the book is third on Amazon's Best Sellers list. Who could have seen this coming?'

Excerpt from #CarelessPeople 📖:

« When we start to run into politicians who put up roadblocks to our expansion, the growth team is quick to suggest that we “juice” the algorithm to help them bolster their Facebook presence. The way they put that? “Let’s dial up the algorithm to give politicians some love.” »

🤯

BTW Javi Olivan, who led the growth team at the time, has been elevated to the role of Meta’s COO (since the departure of Sheryl Sandberg).

Update no. 2:

Yesterday my 4-year-old woke up at 7am thus thwarting my plans to read #CarelessPeople for a good hour.

So today I woke up at 6am to resume reading the book. It’s THAT GOOD.

The leaders at #Meta have been shockingly irresponsible in their decisions since the early days. All they care about? Gathering data and influence and making big bucks. I’m so glad I got out of all their platforms and I’m on the #Fediverse instead.

History books won’t be kind to Zuck, Sandberg et al.

An update: last night I started reading #CarelessPeople and I cannot emphasize enough HOW GOOD it is. A real page-turner.

No wonder #Meta executives are trying to shut down its promotional tour. They come across as shallow, greedy and irresponsible.

The author wrote in the prelude that working there was "like watching a bunch of fourteen-year-olds who’ve been given superpowers and an ungodly amount of money, as they jet around the world to figure out what power has bought and brought them." 🔥

Thanks to the magic of the Streisand effect, I just heard about #CarelessPeople - a book by former Meta employee Sarah Wynn-Williams.

Apparently the company is FREAKING OUT and seeking legal ways to stop its promotion. I can see why. This article about it in the Times made my jaw drop: web.archive.org/web/2025031022

I will definitely order it at my local bookshop.
