About this listen
We analyze the transcript from a Senate Judiciary Committee hearing where Facebook (Meta) whistleblower Sarah Win Williams testifies about the company's dealings. Williams alleges that Meta prioritized profit and Chinese government favor over American values and national security. She describes Meta's cooperation with the Chinese Communist Party, including developing censorship tools, providing access to user data (potentially including American data), and briefing them on AI technology. The hearing also addresses Meta's attempts to silence Williams and its history of misleading Congress and the public on these issues, as well as its practices concerning user data and targeted advertising to vulnerable individuals, including children. Senators express strong concerns about Meta's actions and pledge to pursue further investigation and potential regulation.
