Lol what? Actively Undermining American Democracy? I have to see the source for this.
Google “Cambridge Analytica”
That was an org that trump paid to do what facebook has been doing on their own for over a decade to push politicians that help prop up it’s business.
“Amusingly”, people were all up in arms about election interference and bypassing election advertising rules all up until they realized their own preferred politicians had been doing the same thing extensively even back in the obama era.
People got real quiet about it after that, but facebook is quite clearly the greatest election manipulation machine ever created or conceived by mankind. Other social networks are close behind.
Sure but Cambridge Analytica isn’t “anti-democracy” or whatever anymore then political ads are.
You should really learn more about it before deciding that you have an expert opinion on it.
