According to Facebook employees who spoke with the New York Times, staffers are also urging the company to hunt down the leakers who released the Bosworth memo.

If the report is accurate, the deletion of internal communications could have legal implications, including in an ongoing Federal Trade Commission investigation into the company’s data-handling practices. Destruction of internal documents was a partial focus of the FTC’s recent investigation of Volkswagen.

Bosworth’s memo continued catastrophic PR fallout following findings that the Facebook data of as many as 50 million users was wrongly harvested by the election consulting firm Cambridge Analytica. In the memo leaked Thursday, Bosworth wrote that “connecting people” should be the company’s driving goal, even if “it costs someone a life by exposing someone to bullies” or “someone dies in a terrorist attack coordinated on our tools.”

    Only a slave thinks that "health insurance" (lmao) is a benefit. If only i could be robbed of more of my money to pay for the slow, expensive poisoning of some fat ass moron who sits around eating bullshit and getting dumber watching tv all day, life would be so much better. People who are too lazy/stupid to learn about their own health to prevent all these completely preventable diseases need to be culled by nature. Furthermore, once these degenerate, lying poison dealers in "healthcare" get a toehold (codified) they'll be forcing poison on everyone, not just the ignorant kiss asses. "Brain damage your kids? Tough shit, slave you're not a subversive conspiracy theorist are you? We'd hate to have to repo your kids (state's property under your marriage license/birth certificate/SS card) put you on another list or send you to the re-education center." Global slavery is what the spread of all this big government shit is.

    You sound very well educated! I love that. But I also love the poorly educated. We must take care of them. And that's why we must have universal healthcare. Everybody's got to be covered. This is an un-Republican thing for me to say because a lot of times they say, "no, no, the lower 25% that can't afford private." But I am going to take care of everybody. I don't care if it costs me votes or not. Everybody's going to be taken care of much better than they're taken care of now. They're going to be taken care of. I would make a deal with existing hospitals to take care of people. The government's going to pay for it. But we're going to save so much money on the other side. But for the most it's going to be a private plan and people are going to be able to go out and negotiate great plans with lots of different competition with lots of competitors with great companies and they can have their doctors, they can have plans, they can have everything.
