    If anyone wants to see the video: <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.youtube.com&#x2F;watch?v=dHKhYL3is5o" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.youtube.com&#x2F;watch?v=dHKhYL3is5o

    He did harass them a bit. I&#x27;m looking forward to Meta taking down all videos where someone is a bit harassed. Internet will be a much nicer place!

      Maybe I&#x27;m too European to understand, where exactly is harassment occurring? He&#x27;s asking Meta employees questions, doesn&#x27;t seem to follow them around, and when they walk away or say no, he doesn&#x27;t exactly force them to stay or anything? Doesn&#x27;t there have to be some intimidation or humiliation or similar for it to be harassment? Or asking employees what they think of the products they develop and support is the harassment part?

        You don’t understand the difference between recording things in good faith vs recording things because you want a reaction you can exploit for personal gains.

          Meta is butt raping our privacy 24&#x2F;7 but god forbid some dude ask 3 questions to its employees, I&#x27;ll never understand people bootlicking megacorps like these.

          Fuck meta and fuck every single of their employee, you can&#x27;t keep building hell and complain when people hit back
