What's Next for Facebook?



 

Facebook has been facing criticism on many fronts. What's next for Facebook—or Meta, as it will soon be renaming itself? Jacob Silverman, a staff writer at the New Republic,  will guide us  in a discussion on the future of Facebook in  the light of  whistleblower claims and other disclosures .

In order to prepare for what will be a fascinating discussion, it is suggested that you listen to "The Daily," The New York Time's Podcast of October 6th and read the following articles:


The New York Times - Facebook Whistle-Blower Testifies
The New Yorker - The Moral Bankruptcy of Facebook
New York Magazine - Whistleblower Connects Facebook Decision on Misinformation to Capitol Riot
The Atlantic - What Happened When Facebook Became Boomerbook
