Zuckerberg Says Liz Warren As U.S. President Would Be Bad For Tech

OAN:

WASHINGTON (Reuters) – Facebook Inc Chief Executive Officer Mark Zuckerberg told employees in July that the company would “go to the mat” to defeat Democratic candidate Elizabeth Warren’s expected effort to break up the world’s largest social media company if she were elected president, according to audio of two internal company meetings published by The Verge.

“If she (Warren) gets elected president, then I would bet that we will have a legal challenge and I would bet that we will win the legal challenge. And does that still suck for us? Yeah. I mean, I don’t want to have a major lawsuit against our own government,” he said, according to the leaked audio.

Warren, who in March called for breaking up Amazon.com Inc, Facebook Inc and Alphabet Inc, quickly issued a retort on Twitter.

“What would really ‘suck’ is if we don’t fix a corrupt system that lets giant companies like Facebook engage in illegal anticompetitive practices, stomp on consumer privacy rights,” Warren tweeted.

In a later series of tweets, Warren noted that Facebook has built more market dominance in recent years by acquiring potential competitors WhatsApp and Instagram.

“More than 85% of all social networking traffic goes through sites owned or operated by Facebook,” she wrote. “They’ve got a lot of power—and face little competition or accountability.

“They’ve bulldozed competition, used our private information for profit, undermined our democracy, and tilted the playing field against everyone else.”

In the audio, Zuckerberg said breaking up big tech companies would make election interference “more likely because now the companies can’t coordinate and work together.”

Zuckerberg also drew laughter by saying Facebook’s investment on safety is bigger than Twitter’s entire revenue. keep reading

  1. Could also be a head-fake, *pretending* to be against her,
    to make her *seem* more middle-of-the-road/palatable.

    Also distracts from the Lieawatha/Fauxcahontas albatross around her neck.

  2. Lizzie in a Tizzy will not be the nominee, she has 0% support with black folk and the Satanic Lizard Queen will never allow another woman to usurp her place in history..,she hates Fauxahontus. Madame Cyberhack will be the nominee, take it to the bank.

    The narrative is being shaped as we speak, the Golden Mumu has her latest transfusion of baby blood and a new face lift, she was on the boob tube 7 times this week using the usual Demonrats Trojan horse (a book) to get her face out.

    She running with the blessing of the deep state, they have no one else…

  3. Maybe they are working together and this is just a ploy. Do you really think Warren would do anything to hurt Fakebook the demoncrap/communist, globalist supporting platform? Maybe they are just trying to get the people who are angry at social media to vote for Warren by making them think she would do something about it.
