Facebook whistleblower testifies before US Senate

Available for over a year

Frances Haugen, who worked at Facebook, told a US Senate committee that she believed the company had put its profits first when executives knew what harm its platform could do to children and democracy. Facebook has pushed back against claims. We get details from Kari Paul, technology reporter, Guardian US. Also in the programme, the electric car giant Tesla has been ordered to pay nearly $137 million to a former Black worker who said he suffered racial abuse at the electric carmaker’s factory. Plus, the BBC's Dougal Shaw reports on a new dating app that uses people's music tastes to try and make a match. (Picture: Frances Haugen, former Facebook employee. Picture credit: Getty.)
