Facebook Now Reportedly Accused of Wrongdoing by Another Whistleblower

According to reports, a former Facebook employee told U.S. authorities on Friday that the platform had already put profits into use before stopping problematic content. A few weeks ago, another whistleblower contributed to the company’s latest crisis with similar claims. A report in the Washington Post stated that the new whistleblower, who asked not to be named, filed a complaint with the Securities and Exchange Commission, the US financial regulator, which may exacerbate the company’s distress.

After former employee Frances Haugen leaked internal research showing that the company was aware of the potential harm caused by its website, Facebook faced a storm of criticism in the past month, prompting U.S. lawmakers to reintroduce regulation.

In the US Securities and Exchange Commission’s complaint, the new whistleblower described the so-called 2017 statement when the company was deciding how to deal with disputes related to Russia’s interference in the 2016 US presidential election.

The Washington Post reported that a new whistleblower filed by the US Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) claimed that the managers of the social media giant often undermined efforts to combat misinformation and other problematic content because they were afraid of angering the United States at the time. President Donald Trump may shut down users who are vital to profit.

Facebook spokesperson Erin McPike said that this article “under the Washington Post, in the past five years, it will only report the story after in-depth coverage with proven sources.”

Tom signs Nolan’s next

This will mark the first collaboration between Tom and Christopher. While details of his next directorial aren’t known yet, it’s most likely not to have a contemporary setting. It’ll be either set in the past like, his previous film Oppenheimer (2023), or in the future like Interstellar (2014). Matt Damon, who has worked with Christopher in both, has also come on board his next.

Christopher’s next will be co-produced by him and his wife Emma Thomas’ banner Syncopy Inc and Universal Pictures, as the two production houses will team up after the Academy Award-winning blockbuster Oppenheimer last year. Prior to Oppenheimer, Christopher collaborated mostly with Warner Bros before having a fallout post the debacle of Tenet (2020).

Warner Bros then went on to produce Greta Gerwig’s musical satire Barbie, which clashed with Oppenheimer at the box office and even outperformed it globally. Warner Bros offered Christopher a cheque for the fees he waived off for helming Tenet during the pandemic. While Christopher graciously accepted the belated remuneration, he still went on to pitch his next to Warner Bros.

Tom’s busy schedule

Tom didn’t have any release this year. His last outing was Todd Graff’s psychological thriller show The Crowded Room on Apple TV last year. He’ll juggle the filming of Christopher Nolan’s next and Spider-Man 4 in 2025. Tom has been playing the superhero ever since Russo Brothers’ 2016 blockbuster Captain America: Civil War. He’s slipped into the Peter Parker shoes post that for three standalone films and two Avengers movies. Spider-Man 4 will be helmed by Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings director Destin Daniel Cretton.

As Tom’s girlfriend and co-star Zendaya will be busy filming Spider-Man 4 in 2025, she’ll reprise her role of Chani in Denis Villeneuve’s sci-fi spectacle Dune 3 only in 2026. Meanwhile, Tom is also likely to make an appearance as Spider-Man in Russo Brothers’ Avengers: Doomsday, which will go on floors in the spring of 2025.
