Further publishing and promotion of "Careless People: A Cautionary Tale of Power, Greed and Lost Idealism," by former Meta employee Sarah Wynn-Williams, must stop immediately, according to an arbitrator's ruling in a case Meta brought against Wynn-Williams and her publisher, Flatiron Books. Wynn-Williams must also stop making disparaging remarks against Meta and its employees. [@theverge]( ) says it's unclear if the arbitrator has authority to halt publication, or what can be done to put the genie back in the bottle, given that the book was published this week and is already available in stores. Meta says that the ruling "affirms that Sarah Wynn-Williams' false and defamatory book should never have been published." Wynn-Williams left Meta eight years ago; the book details alleged claims of sexual harassment, including by current policy chief Joel Kaplan. #Books #Bookstodon @bookstodon group #Meta #Tech #Technology
