      FB over like a month: We're going to moderate, but we're going to encrypt things to make it impossible to moderate We make our ads more transparent but make it harder for independent third parties to audit us We'll do a better job with bad actors, but pushing everyone to groups

        It's such a carefully orchestrated snow job specifically aimed at confusing journalists and their readers. No real action, just confusing PR. It's creepy.

          What is hardest to see is how this is all playing to journos. It's like Facebook has militarized itself against the press. All it has learned about amplification, turned against media like it's an enemy, specifically designed to elicit coverage their own platform makes confusing.

            It is like the grossest possible organizational reaction to public criticism Facebook could have had.

              I generally try to avoid applying narrative where it is not clear one exists. Incompetence and confusion is common in outwardly competent tech companies, but this sure looks like a purposeful organized single effort. I'm not sure if it is nastier if it is or if it isn't.

                There was a time when I spent hours on Facebook every day. Now every minute I spend on the site makes me feel more like a collaborator with something awful.
