'Careless People' author claims Meta surveilled her for 12mos to enforce silence

7 hours ago

A former Meta executive sued the company for trying to silence her by enforcing a private arbitration order that bars her from discussing Meta or promoting her memoir, 'Careless People.'
The lawsuit argues the severance agreement she signed upon leaving in 2017 was under duress and seeks to invalidate it and lift the arbitration order, while Meta claims she violated the agreement and her book contains false claims.
Meta has pursued legal actions, including seeking $50,000 per violation of the non-disparagement agreement and obtaining a gag order, and has surveilled her at public events to enforce silence, which the suit says stifles free speech and intimidates potential whistleblowers.
