The language was kind of funny to me even. Hunting down the leakers to make Facebook great again... the company sounds like the business version of the white house administration. If it's this difficult and requires this much secrecy to convince yourself that what you're doing isn't evil then maybe something is very wrong on a foundational level.
I'm struggling to see why anybody thinks this is a reasonable defence.
There is no indication he didn't believe it. The company's behaviour is consistent with it. He only said "I didn't mean it, it was to stimulate debate", and the classic "You're missing context" (which I am not able to show, of course) after drawing negative PR.
It seems very generous to me to give his recent tweet much credibility at all.
>Bosworth distanced himself from the memo, saying in a Twitter post that he hadn’t agreed with those words even when he wrote them.
That is scary as shit. That they think the leaker is the one without integrity and not the executive team.
What terrible people.
