Meta has won an emergency ruling in the US to temporarily stop a former director of Facebook, New Zealander Sarah Wynn Williams, from promoting or further distributing copies of her book.

Her publisher, Pan Macmillan, said in a statement the book was first person narrative account of what the author herself witnessed during her seven years at the company.

Meta supplied a statement to RNZ, in which it called the book “a mix of out-of-date and previously reported claims about the company and false accusations about our executives”.

It said Wynn-Williams ceased working at the company eight years ago, and an investigation at the time found she had made “misleading and unfounded allegations of harassment”.

    Thanks for the links. I read through both, I think I will read this book when I get a chance. I already dislike facebook so much that it will be hard to drop any lower on the scale, but it’s good to reinforce why.
