It's scary how much influence Israel appears to have. They even got this story killed here on HN.


I think it is just personal biases of Meta execs, like Zuckerberg & Mosseri.

Meta's current CISO also worked (works?) for the IDF: https://www.haaretz.com/israel-news/tech-news/2020-12-15/ty-... / https://archive.is/HpVtn


You might want to check Zuck's backstory before attributing this to Israel.

In other news, Franco-Americans may sneer at Anglo-Americans without Paris needing to recruit them, or to lobby for that, or to run influence campaigns, or ...


> Zuck's backstory

It is curious that Zuck tolerated holocaust denial on Meta's platforms for an uncomfortably long time: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=24754553.


I'm sure anything I might be able to find on this billionaire's backstory has been carefully curated over the year. What are you referring to?


Being raised in a Jewish household.

Not a PR expert...but I don't see how spinning that up would have helped Zuck.


Me neither, but I had no idea what GP was referring to, which makes it hard to guess.


After the Rohyngya genocide[1], and now with Gaza, Meta is really doubling down in being remembered as a genocide-friendly company. I wonder if the statues followed by ICC have provisions for aggravated penalties against those taking part or abetting multiple unrelated genocides.
