Project Veritas dropped another insider leaked video on Friday, this one from a Facebook insider that revealed that the social media giant is concerned about whistleblowers leaking information. They have been working to
expose internal workings at Facebook for some time.
The video shows
CEO Mark Zuckerberg and Heidi Swartz, a top executive, talking about former Facebook employee and whistleblower Morgan Kahmann and what they intend to do about this problem they're facing.
"When we find leakers, which we often do, we have zero tolerance. So that means we fire them...We're also continuing to investigate additional potential leakers, and we plan to take action there too. We're also working on continuing to ramp up our investigative techniques as our company grows," Swartz said.
Heidi Swartz, Facebook VP, Deputy General Counsel, Employment Law and Investigations, noted on the video that "
Project Veritas released a video last week alleging that they had uncovered a new effort to censor vaccine concerns globally. It was based on leaked documents about a health integrity program that we have in place that combats vaccine hesitancy by taking a hard stance against vaccine information โ misinformation. This isn't a new effort. This is a program we've proudly spoken about publicly in our blog."
She said that the leakers shared the documents with Project Veritas because they didn't agree with the direction of the company, but that also they shared personal information of other employees, including names and "org charts." She said that these employees' names were leaked on video as well, and that once names are out there, it's hard for Facebook to control what happens to that information."I know some people here feel that there are good leaks and there are bad leaks," Swartz said, "but they are all damaging and they are not the right way to bring about change."
"They [leakers] threatened our open culture, as Mark [Zuckerberg] said, they make it harder for us to achieve our goals. They generally encourage more leaks...I know some people here feel that there are good leaks and there are bad leaks, but they're all damaging. They're not the right way to bring about change, especially at a company like this," she said."You know โ when people leak stuff, do we find them? I've been clear that we have a number of efforts to find people and we terminate people and pursue the recourse that we have when we identify them. In this [Project Veritas] case, we did find them," Zuckerberg said."We also need to be very good at rooting out people who are leaking stuff. You know, I think over the last year there've been more leaks than I think all of us would have wanted, but we also find a lot of the folks and terminate them," Zuckerberg said.

Speaking of Elon Musk, this video condemns him as a fraud.

The people that they reference that they've caught almost certainly were caught because they thought that their online and phone stuff was private. I would guess that they used their normal email addresses and even took videos with their cell phones, etc. Doing that, the NSA (and hence, Fecesbook) can go back and look at what phone did that where when, and surely more that we don't know about.
To do stuff anonymously online, you can't use your home computer (and if you go to the library realize that their first use of the PatrioShit act was to find who posted stuff online from a public library) so you have to use a burner phone, paid for with cash, and realize you probably need a friend to walk up and do the purchase. The other way is to buy a tablet or laptop with cash (preferably used a la craigslist) and then go to some public wifi place to post / send whatever, (all the while avoiding the surveillance cams - it really is that bad!)

they believe their own horse shit too I bet.
Ms. Swartz is a nice, thoughtful, and caring person. Really!
crapfurnishings from that era that I wouldn't take home if they paid me to do it!L, Love the fact that you apparently love keyboards. Although I'm mostly a guitarist, I always LOVE a piano!
L: Sorry to hear. I feel blessed that growing up we had a good family and, importantly, even then I was aware of it.

For a Jew, his parents must be proud of him! Given his German Jewish decent. ("Zuckerberg was raised in a Reform Jewish household,[14][15] and his ancestors hailed from Germany, Austria and Poland.")
(I'm joking. That was discussed and I just nodded and smiled and went over to look at yet ANOTHER AR-15 clone, (gimme a Colt!) though that wasn't what I was seeking.)
