Williams, who makes the claims in a new book, has also filed a whistleblower complaint with the SEC, alleging Meta misled investors, and that in return for gaining access to the Chinese market of hundreds of millions of users, Zuckerberg, considered agreeing to hiding posts that were going viral, until they could be checked by the Chinese authorities.
