Facebook A business with an exceedingly low ratio of invention to success. Timothy Wu, The Attention Merchants © 2016 Kwiple.com
Facebook But Facebook is also, effectively, a hostile foreign power. This is plain to see in its single-minded focus on its own expansion; its immunity to any sense of civic obligation; its record of facilitating the undermining of elections; its antipathy toward the free press; its rulers’ callousness and hubris; and its indifference to the endurance of American democracy.

Facebook Maybe someone dies in a terrorist attack coordinated on our tools. And still we connect people. The ugly truth is that we believe in connecting people so deeply that anything that allows us to connect more people more often is *de facto* good. Andrew Bosworth, Facebook vice president, in a memo leaked to the press, which caused many employees to begin a witch-hunt to find and punish the leaker and to delete potentially controversial comments or newsworthy messages © 2018 Kwiple.com
