It is an impressive performance on her part. She successfully navigated several primitive attempts by senators to frame the intent of people at Facebook as malevolent. A typical politician move to try to create a fictionalized supervillain to attack - a vapid rhetoric path. She dodged that multiple times and directed the conversation back to the substantive issues of privacy, algorithms, content.

These folks are ooold. They don’t understand anything other than black and white because they’re just told it’s an issue. Average age of a senator is 63 years old.
