Ex-Facebook Executive Alleges Meta’s Dubious Deals and Awkward Diplomacy

Sarah Wynn-Williams' memoir accuses Meta of compromising ethics in China and reveals Mark Zuckerberg's strained encounters with world leaders.

Sarah Wynn-Williams, a former Facebook executive, claims in her memoir 'Careless People' that Meta explored sharing user data and developing censorship tools to enter the Chinese market.
The book alleges that Mark Zuckerberg’s attempts to meet Xi Jinping were blocked by a 'human wall' of security guards during the 2016 APEC summit in Lima, Peru.
Wynn-Williams recounts several awkward diplomatic interactions involving Zuckerberg, including a tense meeting with New Zealand's prime minister and a misstep with Colombia's president at a media event.
Meta has denied the allegations, stating that Wynn-Williams was fired in 2017 for poor performance and toxic behavior, and has announced legal action against the book's publisher.
The memoir also highlights claims of a toxic workplace culture at Meta and raises questions about the company's ethical practices in global markets.
