あらすじ・解説
This week on What She Said, we’re diving deep into ajaw-dropping exposé that has rocked the tech world. We're talking about Sarah Wynne Williams – the former Facebook executive turned whistleblower, who’s pulling back the curtain on one of the most powerful companies on the planet.From playing by Silicon Valley’s unspoken rules (like letting Zuckerberg win board games) to sending emails from the delivery room – her story is the stuff of corporate thrillers. But it's real. It's raw. And it’s happening right now.Tech, Power & the Price of Truth Sarah’s memoir, Careless People (published March 2025), isn’t just a tell-all. It’s a blistering critique of how power, politics, and profit collide inside Meta – the $2.3 trillion empire behind Facebook, Instagram, and WhatsApp.We unpack:How Meta allegedly tracked the emotions of teenagers and sold the data to advertisersThe internal backlash around content moderation and racial abuse in the metaverseMeta’s controversial willingness to bend to China’s censorship rulesAccusations of workplace harassment and toxic culture from two of Meta’s top female executivesFrom Silicon Valley to the Courtroom Sarah’s not alone. Another long-time Meta employee, Kelly Stone Lake, is also taking a stand—suing Meta for sex discrimination, unsafe VR environments, and emotionaltrauma. These aren’t isolated complaints—they’re warnings from within.Real Talk: Toxic Workplaces & Speaking UpWe get personal, too. Moira, Paige, and Emma share their own stories of toxic workplaces, silent suffering, and the emotional toll of staying in harmful environments. We ask the hard questions:Would you speak out if it meant risking everything?Is it even possible to rein in tech giants once they’ve amassed so much power?And is social media manipulating our emotions more than we realize? Should tech companies be allowed to censor content on behalf of governments? And are we okay with them knowing our deepest insecurities just to sell us beauty products? The lines between innovation and exploitation are getting blurrier, and it’s time to talk about it.If you’ve ever felt creeped out by your phone suggesting adsthat seem a little too specific, or if you’ve worked somewhere that crushed your spirit instead of building you up—this episode is for you.Listener Question: Is it too late to put the genie back in the bottle?
