20 Meta employees have been fired for leaking confidential information to the media, the company said. The firings came after reports based on Mark Zuckerberg’s meetings with employees. Zuckerberg has made a particular turn towards US President Donald Trump since his return to office. The CEO and founder has dined with the Republican on several occasions, donated to the president’s inauguration fund, eased up on content moderation, and ended Facebook’s US fact-checking program. The measures align with the conservative views of the president and his allies, as well as masculinist entertainers and personalities like Elon Musk, Zuckerberg said last week. The company said it will continue to take action when it finds more leaks of confidential information. The firing comes after Zuckerberg threatened the tech tycoon with life imprisonment after Meta excluded the president from Facebook in January 2021 for encouraging the assault on the Capitol. He also warned them to \”buckle up\” for the coming year and said that Meta would be a productive partner with the White House.
