Facebook (FB) Stock Future Outlook and Nature of Market Attacks
Notably, Haugen who appeared in an interview on news magazine ‘60 Minutes’ that is backed by CBS, is scheduled to testify in a Senate subcommittee tomorrow, Tuesday. The hearing is titled “Protecting Kids Online,” which touches on things about the company’s research into Instagram’s effect on the mental health of young users.
During the interview, the former Facebook internal researcher said the company has been bidding more than it knows about society’s challenges. “I’ve seen a bunch of social networks and it was substantially worse at Facebook than anything I’d seen before,” she said in the interview on Sunday.
In its defense, the company has distanced itself from manipulative ways of earning profits from its huge market dominance.
“Every day our teams have to balance protecting the ability of billions of people to express themselves openly with the need to keep our platform a safe and positive place,” Facebook spokesperson Lena Pietsch said in a statement following Haugen’s identity reveal. “We continue to make significant improvements to tackle the spread of misinformation and harmful content. To suggest we encourage bad content and do nothing is just not true.”
