F*cebo*k, Inst*gram, and the other family apps went down earlier this week for more than 5 hours. For some people, it did not impact their daily lives, but FB and the family of apps serve as a primary source of communication and income for others. But things get even more bewildering when FB wh*stleblower, Mrs. Haugen, testifies before Congress (a day before FB went down) about F*cebo*k's knowledge of the harm it has on teens. 

In this episode, we discuss the Congressional hearing and the 10,000 documents released showing the company is at fault for the mental health crisis among kids and complicit in fixing an algorithm fueled by hate.
