[OT] Zuckerberg gets hung out to dry by whistle-blower

[Rhino]

Mark Zuckerberg must be VERY unhappy right about now. A whistle-blower
has told a Senate committee in open session that he actively colluded
with the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) in bring Facebook to China, and
enabling CCP security to have information about users in China, Hong
Kong AND Taiwan. Senator Blumenthal pointed out that Zuck had told the
Senate in previous testimony that no such activities took place. She's
essentially exposed him as lying to the Senate and betraying customers
in China, Hong Kong and Taiwan.

[10 minutes]

I'm not sure how he's going to deal with this mess. He's got lots of
money, power, and influence so he's got lots of levers to pull. If I
were the whistle-blower, I would keep a VERY low profile, just in case
Zuck decides that an "unfortunate accident" would be a good idea.

What would be the point in whacking her now? You only whack someone to keep
them from exposing you. She's already spilled the beans.

I'm assuming they take some additional action to discredit her - like
inventing a long history of lying and blackmail - that comes out about
the same time as her unexpected suicide. That might muddy the waters
sufficiently that her credibility is undermined.

Maybe I've watched too many murder conspiracy shows ;-)

Just like why does a loan shark (per tv and movies..) kill the
patsy who owes him $50k and then won't get the money.

It's to warn other delinquents...

An American company bringing mass communication to China had to collude
with the communist party? I'm shocked SHOCKED. Facebook is deployed in
dictactorship after dictatorship. They colluded with the government, and
are sometimes the only mass medium of communication. Facebook users have
no alternative sources of news. Sometimes, Facebook communicated
anti-ethnic propoganda, stirring up events leading to harrassment,
slaughter, ethnic cleansing...

Facebook has a terrible reputation in parts of the world without free
speech/free press.

The gentleman might have learned this from the same newspaper stories
that I've read. It's funny what you can learn from newspapers in a
country that has freedom of the press.

There may be restrictions in federal law upon American companies serving
the propoganda needs of evil dictatorships in their own countries. As
far as I know, this isn't a violation of the Wilson era Espionage Act,
but there could be subsequent laws I'm not familiar with. I'm skeptical
what extra-territorial jurisdiction US law can assert.

A corporate exective says exactly what's in his best interest? I've
never heard of such a thing.

He's a corporate executive. He'll hire more lawyers.
