      Having to divest instagram and WhatsApp is a lot more than a slap on the wrist, this time.

      Facebook is dying, kids these days use IG.

        Unless there’s commercial benefits, I think we’ll see flying pigs before this divestment actually happens.

          Did you not read the article? That’s what the prosecutor is pushing for. So it’s not like Facebook would have a choice if the man comes down on them.

          Which… I’m sure they won’t but still.

        There is no way that will happen. Zuck bet large on Trump precisely for stuff like this. The FTC will be disbanded if they try to force this. More likely is that whoever doesn’t do Trumps bidding will be fired until they find someone who does.
