The smear here is actually against Facebook. The whistleblower is clearly being boosted by Democratic operatives [1] and appeared in front of Congress the day after 60 minutes.

Wow. That was some hit piece. Nothing was spared — They even managed to "casually" reveal her sexuality. For some reason.

Absolutely disgusting. I can't believe intelligent people read, let alone cite, this Enquirer-level garbage.

Ok yes. But lots of things are true here 1) that’s a hit piece and 2) Francis is all about Francis and 3) Facebook is an awful company.
Yes, the smear is against Facebook, and not the person releasing internal research from Facebook itself, that was not written by the whistleblower.

And obviously, discounting someone presenting factual evidence that at the moment is unchallenged based on perceived personal politics is fair game, reasonable, and the measure of good faith discussion.
