Mr zuckerberg's involvement signals it is a huge problem, one unable to spin away..

People always figure out a way around the latest attempt to control - and these measures will be overcome by bad intenders.

So if FB admits it has a community safety and fake news problem - by hiring 3000 additional enforcement agents, why would one stay with FB if there is an alternative. Which there isn't.

I would like a FB lite. Photo sharing and comments and discovery of old friends. No news. No menu of features.

I wish there could be an alternative. ("Its just like. fB but without the news and crap)

I think some alternatives do exist, but I do not believe an near exact clone of Facebook with less of the problems of Facebook exists.

Maybe it's just infeasible to properly monitor such a massive social network? I don't know for sure, but I left Facebook long ago and have not regretted it at all.

I'm not quite sure I follow. I only see news posted by my friends and the pages I follow. What would FB lite look like?
