Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg told employees he would fight a legal battle against Elizabeth Warren's ambitions to break up big tech, according to leaked audio.
While Massachusetts Sen. Elizabeth Warren watched her 2020 candidacy steadily rise over the summer, Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg was telling employees he would fight a legal battle before he let the company succumb to Warren's ambitions to break up big tech, according to audio leaked Tuesday morning.
"Does that still suck for us? Yeah. I mean, I don’t want to have a major lawsuit against our own government ... We care about our country and want to work with our government and do good things," Zuckerberg told employees at a July Q&A session at company headquarters."But look, at the end of the day, if someone’s going to try to threaten something that existential, you go to the mat and you fight.
A few hours later, she spoke out again -- though she didn't address Zuckerberg's threat of initiating a lawsuit or whether his doing so could neuter her plan. She also seemed to address Zuckerberg's criticism in the leaked audio that breaking companies up wouldn't"solve the issues" because"companies can't coordinate and work together" on issues of privacy, foreign interference or hate speech.
What would really “suck” is if we don’t fix a corrupt system that lets giant companies like Facebook engage in illegal anticompetitive practices, stomp on consumer privacy rights, and repeatedly fumble their responsibility to protect our democracy. https://t.co/rI0v55KKAi His response was to a question about how"personally worried" he was about"regulators coming in and breaking up Facebook" given Warren's rise in the 2020 presidential race, coupled with the $5 billion fine from the Federal Trade Commission the company recently paid over privacy issues.
