I wonder how people continue to work at Facebook. I know they tend to have the highest salaries from the FAANG groups, but still. We, as engineers and builders, have the responsibility to think critically about how the things we are working on will be used.

I wonder how people can continue to post questions like this to HN, when there are billions of people who happily use Facebook. I would think it's our responsibility to look outside of our narrow information bubble.

If the original claim is that 'facebook is damaging to (and beyond) its users', then the response 'but it has _many_ users' isn't much of a defense..

I think the original claim is that "facebook is damaging to some users". You could say the same about salt. People still work in salt mines.

I'm not really able to wrap my head around your argument.

If it's damaging to some percentage of users, having more users means it damages more people.

Is your argument that this is okay because some people also put their health at risk being salt miners?
