Author of "Careless People" banned from saying anything negative about Meta (thetimes.com)

The Sunday Times reports that Sarah Wynn-Williams, author of the whistleblower book “Careless People,” was barred by a US arbitration order (via a non-disparagement clause) from promoting or making negative statements about Meta, under threat of large fines. Her publisher argues the gag order and Meta’s actions have only boosted interest in the book, which makes allegations including sexual harassment, manipulation of teenagers and risks around user data. The article also notes Wynn-Williams has testified to a US Senate subcommittee alleging Meta’s links to Chinese state access to data, while she remains unable to comment publicly or discuss the book during the ongoing legal process.
