This was the giveaway that it was an FB person. Parts of that comment is verbatim from FB propaganda ads[0]. Maybe that awkward video from ~last month[1] was targeted more at aligning FB employees internally around the message, not the general public.

I mean, they also say "Facebook finds itself in the position of trying to help advertisers navigate Apple’s ATT changes - answering a wide variety of questions. We ..." I think everyone involved knows this is an issue from FB?

Do you have an actual response to this point or are you just criticizing that multiple people made that same argument?

These people believe they’re lucky to work at a place like Facebook, and after reading some of these asinine comments, I'm inclined to agree.

The idea that they shit in the pool and get the swimmers to defend them sounds crazy, but people do defend Facebook’s doo-doo, and it makes sense that if you’re already covered in shit, it’s probably easier to pay people like this to walk around with shit all over themselves and say with a straight face “Apple should pay for our shit” than I ever thought.
