‘Illegal And Dangerous’: Whistleblower To Tell Lawmakers Meta Aided Chinese Government Amid Lengthy Feud With Company

A former Facebook executive alleges the social media platform partook of “illegal and dangerous activities” with the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) at the expense of America’s national security.

Former Facebook Director of Global Public Policy Sarah Wynn-Williams is slated to testify to the Senate Judiciary Committee Wednesday about Facebook’s alleged ties to China in a prepared opening statement obtained by the 🏢Daily Caller News Foundation.

“Meta has been willing to compromise its values, sacrifice the security of its users, and undermine American interests to build its China business,” Wynn-Williams’ opening statement reads. “It’s been happening for years, covered up by lies, and continues to this day.”

“I am here at considerable personal risk because you have the power and the authority to hold them accountable,” she wrote to lawmakers.
