Hey there --



Facebook’s had one heck of a year. Watch our new video that captures some of the company’s biggest failures from 2021 including: [[link removed]]

*
Facebook
kicked
off
2021
by
allowing
extremists
to
use
their
platform
to
coordinate
the
deadly
Capitol
insurrection.
After
initially
denying
any
involvement,
Facebook
ultimately
admitted
that
their
platform
was
used
to
incite
the
insurrection.
*
*
Facebook
suspended
Donald
Trump
after
the
insurrection,
but
a
few
months
later
allowed
Trump’s
PAC
to
resume
running
political
advertisements.
Since
June,
Facebook
has
raked
in
between
$841,000
and
$1.5
million
from
Trump’s
ads
alone.
*
*
Facebook
said
they
would
let
independent
researchers
study
misinformation
on
the
platform.
But
then
they
blocked
independent
researchers
from
the
platform
altogether.
*
*
Facebook
hid
internal
research
on
Instagram’s
harms
to
kids
and
teens
from
users,
parents,
and
elected
officials.
These
documents
were
eventually
brought
to
light
by
the
Facebook
whistleblower
Frances
Haugen.

At the end of each year, Facebook rolls out a “Year in Review'' feature for users that shows the highlights from their past year. So, we made a version for Facebook. Share our brand new video chronicling all the harms and lies from Facebook over this past year: [[link removed]]
