Description

During his recent Congressional testimony, Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg said his company has not taken “a broad enough view of our responsibility,” saying they have a duty “to not just build tools, but to make sure those tools are used for good.” This is a significant shift from the company’s original hacker mantra of “move fast and break stuff.” This shift is occurring after several years of significant challenges for Facebook, and we hope you will join us as we discuss what the company has learned, how it is planning to evolve, and what challenges it is likely to encounter going forward.
