This is true and it needs to change. Intervention from governments is required, as it has been in other sectors in the past. Further delay means significant damage to our society. This can be fixed and it should be. Canada can protect its own people with its own laws #cdnpoli

"We are now in social media's Big Tobacco moment." This is the #facebook #whistleblower interview that you need to listen to. We advise orgs on how to best use social media and this age of unregulated irresponsibility for platforms must end. #cdnpoli sologi.co/3aSxPxO
Full agreement! This is not the case today. The promise of #socialmedia when we started 10 years ago was optimistic and exciting, Facebook has made it dangerous and dystopian. Our clients need to reach their audience, not hack democracy. #asharething #leadership
Haugen: "I believe in the potential of Facebook. We can have social media we enjoy, that connects us, WITHOUT tearing apart our democracy, putting our children in danger and sowing ethnic violence around the world. We can do better."

During the first age of social media, pre-regulation, this could be considered a super power! 🦸🏻‍♀️👏💪
A powerful insight from this morning's meditation "moment". Can you step away from your own opinions? #AShareThing sologi.co/3aQZKxQ
