Oct 2021. A Facebook Whistleblower

The former Facebook employee whose leaks triggered some of the most intense scrutiny in the company’s history revealed her identity. Frances Haugen, a former Facebook product manager with stints at several other big tech companies, has went public. Haugen, 37, joined Facebook in 2019 to work on civic integrity, including “issues related to democracy and misinformation,” according to her website. Those issues have been front and center for critics of Facebook and other social media companies, particularly around the coronavirus pandemic and the 2020 US Presidential Election. Haugen took the job at Facebook to work on addressing misinformation, she said in her “60 Minutes” interview. But she said her feelings about the company started to change when it decided to dissolve its civic integrity team shortly after the election.
