    That's some typo. I mean bot follows. I'm either really big with bots, or everyone is not getting 50bots/day.

    The boy follows are continuing apace. They seem to all be new accounts that have followed 40 really famous comics and other folks with huge numbers of followers and then me as their 40th or 50th follow. I don't know why.

    Sandberg helped create FBs ad business. Didn't she lead the creation of it? This is not about "making mistakes" it's about the entire point of the ad system. Thoughtful people in tech have seen this stuff for YEARS. It's just beginning to be acknowledged in the general press.

    I'm still waiting for the press to ask her if she's personally responsible for FBs diversity in hiring and promotion and top leadership. She wrote a book and claimed she is a feminist leader. I still don't know how many women and men of colour report to her.

    What does it mean for Sandberg to be "personally responsible" as she claims she is other than doing these interviews?

    I asked Sheryl Sandberg the same question I asked Zuck yesterday: Why not make your ad business far less reliant on user data, and still support Facebook as a free service with ads? The answer: Not going to happen.

    There may also be a presumption all the PR work on Sandbergs likeability and relatability will help. Fwiw I was told by a SV lobbyist around 2010/1 she planned to run for President

    Puzzled by Sheryl Sandberg’s media tour today. Zuckerberg already took responsibility for data privacy yesterday. What’s to gain from having her do the same thing a day later?

    FB has pushed Sandberg out to take the focus off of Zuckerberg many many times. Watch Zuckerberg's terrible interview with Sarah Lacy at SXSW 2007. She has been a communication substitute many times because there are some things he can't do. Also, she ran FBs ads and ops

    Harasser Glenn Thrush still has a NYTimes job. Props to for keeping the drumbeat up about the big problems this poses. Another notable harasser still at the top of Disney - John Lasseter

    Kevin Williamson has been fired from The Atlantic. From Jeffrey Goldberg's letter to staff: "The language he used in this podcast—and in my conversations with him in recent days—made it clear that the original tweet did, in fact, represent his carefully considered views."

    Big, big thanks to , who did the draining, hard, and thankless job of advocating for women on this, refusing to back down or "get over it." Without her, this genocidal creep would still have his mainstream platform.

    Facebook has practiced PR for years. It's worked for them. Why would it change now? Thepartner who doesn't leave tends to behave the same way they did in the marriage in the divorce, including the ways that led to the divorce.

    Cambridge Analytica is under investigation for its role in referendum. As is its affiliate AIQ. Yet Zuck made no mention of referendum. Why?
