The Vatican of Silicon Valley
I'm standing in Facebook's $300 million headquarters in 2018, and something feels deeply wrong. The building gleams with the confidence of a tech cathedral, yet in my bag are 1,400 pages of leaked documents revealing catastrophic failures in content moderation worldwide. As polished executives discuss specific challenges with thoughtful precision, I notice a troubling blindness: they cannot see how their platform's fundamental architecture is rewiring human behavior itself. When I mention viral rumors triggering mob violence or QAnon's explosive growth, their eyes glaze over. Later, I'll discover why: internal research warning that "our algorithms exploit the human brain's attraction to divisiveness" had been shelved to protect user engagement. This pattern-growth over safety-would repeat across platforms, countries, and crises, leaving a trail of real-world devastation few imagined possible when social media first promised to connect the world.
