Meta engineering manager caught sexting teen - Suspect helped build “digital experiences for kids” at Meta.
🐍 Not shocked by #Meta or the kind of people they put in charge of their “digital experiences for kids”¹.
Exactly the kind of person to entrust with social media #ageverification (calls, live videos, photographs etc.).
I mean they already love scanning messages for child sexual abuse material via #ChatControl².
☑️ Entrust children's data to the people literally caught exploiting them, all under the banner of protecting kids?

Especially bad considering their leadership (Mark Zuckerberg) actually wanted contact with already convicted child sex offender Jeffrey Epstein!

To be fair, in this case it was likely for connections, not for children, no?
Epstein was convicted in 2008 for soliciting a minor for prostitution, therefore Zuck met and wanted to stay in touch with a known pedo, plus then even lied about it. Bad either way and highly sus imho.
Omfg I regret reading the guy's excuses. An actual load of shit is less gross.
