My question to Meta is, why bother to roll out the cannons to blast this tome? The effort to neutralize the book seems quaint and futile. For one thing, NDAs do not cancel out the first amendment, @stevenlevy.bsky.social writes.

On Meta's effort to bury the book, "Careless People."
Meta Tries to Bury a Tell-All Book
Mark Zuckerberg might be in his post-fact-checking-era. But that hasn’t stopped Meta from going after the author of Careless People.

Translation: What we said originally about our reasons for doing this was bullshit, we really wanted to dismantle a federal agency by fiat for ideological reasons.

For those keeping track at home, Dems held the floor all night and are still going strong this morning.
35+ Dems plan to hold the Senate floor all night to oppose the confirmation of Musk-Trump funding freeze architect Russ Vought. THIS is how we fight back while in the minority.

We can't lose the plot:

Republicans are stealing from you so they can give more to billionaires.

They're handing Elon Musk your personal information, shutting down public services you paid for, and hiking the cost of living.

Don't let them hide their corruption with chaos.

The “full faith and credit” of the United States has been torched. Elon is abrogating contracts, stiffing contractors, and fighting to hold back Congressional mandated funds to the states.
I wonder if we should be thinking of Musk's seizing of Treasury as an historic cyber-security breach that endangers the entire US and global financial system.

Every government and financial institution in the world should be demanding that Treasury arrest the hackers, restore integrity of US govt.

Elon Musk is digging and he just won't stop.

Doesn't he know everyone who voted for Trump is a White Supremacist?
