No way. I was assured that the FBI wasn’t a corrupt organization.

Well the FBI asked them to slow the spread of misinformation. What’s a company to do?

Edit - a lot of you miss the sarcasm of my post.

Because it would hurt Facebook's preferred candidate that they spent so much money on getting elected. They were all in on it together.

It'll be funny if FB blocks the posting of this or see what "fact-checkers" on FB say to try to downplay this. Clown world.

To the FBI? Because they are on the payroll, on the board, and leaders in the company.

But Facebook allowed for the spread of the misinformation about the laptop (the 50 Intel experts = Russian disinformation)

Government: “need you squash that bad news on a candidate”

Social media: “done”

This is exactly how it works in authoritarian/dictatorships around the world.
