Strange! This guy adopted the same attitude as Bill Gates and Steve Jobs regarding their children’s use of electronic devices. Neither of them allowed their children to use iPhones, iPads or electronic games.

It is more and more common for Big Tech execs to voice remorse and guilt over their effect upon society. In this case, Facebook is hammered as ‘ripping apart society’. This former Facebook Vice President says his own children “aren’t allowed to use that s**t.” ⁃ TN Editor
Another former Facebook executive has spoken out about the harm the social network is doing to civil society around the world. Chamath Palihapitiya, who joined Facebook in 2007 and became its vice president for user growth, said he feels “tremendous guilt” about the company he helped make. “I think we have created tools that are ripping apart the social fabric of how society works,” he told an audience at Stanford Graduate School of Business, before recommending people take a “hard break” from social media.
