I’m waiting for this to be framed as a racial equity issue. Are they really going to pay people in Detroit and Atlanta less than people in San Francisco and Seattle for the same job in the same “virtual” location?

If they make more working for Facebook in Detroit than for a a Detroit-local tech company, and they will, it's hard to say who's harmed here.

Of course there's gray area here but I think it will be fine. They won't be the first company with localized salaries.

Probably. You can get a 2br apartment in Detroit and Ann Arbor for half the cost of a 1br in San Francisco.
