Facebook changing name to Meta

Facebook is changing its name to Meta as it focuses on the virtual world

facebook is now a meta product.

I'm not certain which name is worse; meta or alphabet

I doubt it will wash away the stink, ppl will still refer to it as facebook just as everyone just appear to call all things google related to alphabet.
