With that out of the way though, I'm obligated to say that there have been many stages in the lifecycle of Facebook where one could have said "how could they do something this despicable" and leave for another "high impact" job, and it saddens me that things have to reach such a high boiling point (what with all the protests, riots, and so on going on in the US) in order for people to actually realize that they've been propping up an extremely disingenuous and immoral organization.
There have been many opportunities in Facebook's history to say, you know what, what they're doing is really messed up, and it's really immoral, and I can't put up with it anymore.
The cynic in me is saying that this person is piggybacking off of this incredibly tense situation to go viral basically everywhere. His LinkedIn post has north of 200K likes [0] and he'll have absolutely _no_ problem finding work. I truly wish him the best of luck in doing so. But I'm honestly disappointed that it's taken people this long to realize that Facebook is not the bastion of good that they thought it was.
