Meta compromised U.S. national security and freedom of speech to do business with China, a company whistleblower testified before U.S. senators.
Sarah Wynn-Williams, a former global policy director at Facebook, told the U.S. Senate on Wednesday that Meta founder Mark Zuckerberg personally designed and implemented a content review tool for Facebook that was used in Hong Kong and Taiwan.
The tool, according to her, would automatically submit a Facebook post for review by a “chief editor” whenever it received over 10,000 views.
“One thing the Chinese Communist Party and Mark Zuckerberg share is that they want to silence their critics. I can say that from personal experience,” Wynn-Williams said at the congressional hearing.
This tool was operational in both self-ruling Taiwan and China-controlled Hong Kong, where the Chinese Communist Party has been expanding its united front efforts.
