Jens FinkhäuserLooks like my copy of #CarelessPeople has been produced and handled a little, errm, carelessly.
KimThese two "intelligentsia" are gross. Used to enjoy Kara, sick of them both now.
Sjoerd#CarelessPeople (8/8) ok I give up. I made it this far but I honestly can’t get myself to add another word of this toxicity to my brain, which is waiting to be replenished with important books, like “Where’s All The Community? Aboriginal Melbourne Revisited” that is waiting for me on the library reserve shelf.
I don’t need to know how she absolves herself from responsibility for Myanmar. How she acts as if it was all anyone else’s responsibility but hers. Or how she acts, as she does with Brexit, as if it all happened elsewhere, in a place that has nothing to do with her.
Friends don’t recommend this book to friends. #bookstodon
Frederico - Festival TradeBuy this book to support the #author "Careless People" by Sarah Wynn-Williams.
Or watch the documentary on Netflix, "The Great Hack"
She has been silenced by #Facebook #Meta and the #media
On May 31, 2026, Wynn-Williams sat on stage for an hour in silent order from #meta
She's not allowed to talk about her own book
Sadly, #whistleblowers are treated as criminals. The #democratic system we are living in is a lie, and we know it!
Der WirrwolfNatürlich ist "Careless People" von Sarah Wynn-Williams ein Buch über Konzerne, die so mächtig sind wie ganze Staaten, Machtmissbrauch, Lügen und verlorene Ideale. Vor allem aber ist es unterhaltend, lehrreich und gleichzeitig erschreckend und tiefgründig komisch und humorvoll. Ein Buch, dass ich allen, die sich für Politik und Tech-Konzerne interessieren, nur wärmstens empfehlen kann.

#CarelessPeople (7/?) I honest to god thought, from her tone of indignation at how awful everyone around her was and what a destructive company it was, that she had had the final straw in the previous chapter, but this anecdote concludes with “For years afterward, anytime there are…”
years??? you knew all that, and you stayed, not for a few months for a no doubt very lucrative exit strategy, you stayed for YEARS?
#CarelessPeople (6/?) about the first time a genuinely serious international policy (her field, remember) issue comes up, regarding China, she concludes the chapter with a trivializing (and possibly racist) punchline about a “red flag” 🙄
#CarelessPeople (5/?) the very first “realisation of how little they care” (p. 118), is literally exclusively a realisation how little they cared about *her*.
This book should have been called “People Who Didn’t Care About Meeeeeeeeee”, really.
#CarelessPeople (4/?) “I hate myself for being part of this”, she writes on p. 91 out of 380. 🙄
#CarelessPeople (3/?) when she goes to Myanmar to get the junta to unblock Facebook and they tell her they block it because people are using it to foment ethnic hatred and she’s like “meh, please just unblock us”; I am not getting a sense that she herself is significantly more caring here.
Oh wait, she cared, about potentially being fired if her employer would find out she was pregnant before she had fixed that situation.
