He throws huge temper tantrums and pouts so much when he loses at board games while traveling on the facebook private jet so all his staff conspires to let him win.

I read the book. Also Sheryl Sandberg comes off pretty badly, buying $13,000 worth of lingerie for her "cutie" personal assistants and asking them to wear skimpy pajamas and snuggle with her in the bed on the corporate jet.

There is a lot of corporate private jet related drama in the book.

Good lord the Wikipedia article about her has more absolutely dogshit behavor [1]:

> According to an April 21, 2022, report by The Wall Street Journal, Sandberg was part of a coordinated campaign to prevent the Daily Mail from publishing a story about a temporary restraining order towards Kotick by a former girlfriend in 2014.

Dated Bobby Kotick? That alone is a red flag...

A bed in a corprate jet is a huge red flag. They have a place in private aircraft, but a company jet is a total non-starter.

Red eye international flights where the execs sleep?

[sandworm101]

Get lay flat seats. A bed isnt for sleeping during flight.

The one place they are practical is some traveling shows where a private jet becomes a mobile hotel room/office, a much more expensive tour bus. But even then, you sleep in them on the ground. Not going to a hotel means less drives through the city, which is a pain if you are only in town for one night. Sleep/eat at the airport and you have saved many hours.

In a cot. Not a double bed, in its on room

It's hilarious that anyone would give a shit about Zuck having a bad attitude about losing board games. Hopefully the book has something more damning than that.

The book has plenty of prurient private-jet-boardgame stuff, but also deals directly with facebook's adoption in Myanmar at at time when the inflammatary online speech was directly fuelling ethnic violence against the Rohingya. It covers the inability and possible unwillingness of facebook moderation staff to intervene, including a report that one paid moderator was not effective in their work because their personal views aligned with the regime.

[FireBeyond]

The Myanmar struggles where Zuck explicitly valued a feature and the approval of the administration over open threats to harm dissidents.

Or the times when he proposed using lower level FB staff as canaries in the coal mine over governments who threatened to arrest FB employees because the company was breaking their laws... and in one case, an employee was. And Zuck wanted to sit on getting him legal help and out of jail because he felt it would get FB positive PR. And when he was gotten out of jail and brought to a company event where he would meet company execs, Zuck was introduced to him, didn't look up from his phone, and in fact asked, while led away, "who was that, again?"

Incredibly yucky of Zuckerberg do that. I found it very hard to read through that part.

The major allegations are about Meta bringing authoritarians to power while shirking responsibility for making that happen

[ben_w]

It's an indicator of being a fragile personality.

Everyone makes mistakes sometimes; and if you cannot be told you have made a mistake even in a low-stakes situation like a board game, it seems unlikely you will behave appropriately when it is something more expensive and/or damaging.

Hopefully? Buy it, or borrow it, and read it.

Remove doubt

[lostmsu]

Seconding this. I don't think the book can convince me Zuck is a criminal, but there's a variety of useful information in it, especially if you read it carefully without blindly following author's own deductions.

[senordevnyc]

Zero percent chance I’m going to spend my limited reading time on that.
