News Alert: Facebook changes its company name to Meta

Facebook is changing its company name to Meta as it confronts wide-ranging scrutiny of the real-world harms from its various platforms after a whistleblower leaked hundreds of internal documents.

The change will demote Facebook's namesake service to being just one of the company's subsidiaries, alongside Instagram and WhatsApp, rather than the overarching brand.

A rebranding could be part of an effort to overhaul Facebook's reputation and turn the page following a series of PR nightmares, including misinformation on its platforms, content moderation failures and revelations about the negative effect its products have on some users' mental health.

They think that by changing their name everyone is going to be fooled and forget all the **** they've been accused of? Un-****ing-believable!

Next up: Mark Zuckerberg changes his name to Abagail McGillicuddy.

Thanks Bat. My initial hot take of their censorship being a comfortable middle-ground for me may need some revision and nuance injected into it based on this.

Air Canada CEO says he's lived in Montreal 'without speaking French' for 14 years

One of the biggest news stories in Canada at the moment.

I used to despise anglos living in Montreal and refusing to learn French but these days my gf is an American who I've accepted is never going to learn a foreign language and I still want her to live in Montreal with me so I guess that means my stance has softened.

Ah you're a weird Quebec nationalist. That's a puzzle piece falling into place.
