WHAT. AN. INCREDIBLE. BOOK!!!!
Literally, the stories were just batshit crazy, and they kept getting more and more insane.
Overall, the book has everything I like: big tech, biography, geopolitics, and batshit crazy office gossip. I've always known about Meta's issues with content regulation, but for the longest time, I thought it was a tough scaling problem to crack, as their platform is too huge and trolls/bad actors are everywhere. However, now I know that the platform is shitty by choice. The blatant misogyny in the office is crazy, and the leadership doesn't really have any redemption arcs. Well, thanks, Sarah, for exposing them.
I agree with people's general notion that Sarah's lack of accountability is quite annoying. I wish she could discuss more about how she gaslit herself into turning a blind eye, or how the guilt pressed her down. The fact that she was fired, not that she resigned by guilt, also reflects her lack of accountability in Meta's bad acts. However, the fact that she's putting herself on the line to write this book is brave enough to compensate for it.
