Happening Now: Whistleblower Testifies On Accusation Meta Compromised National Security

Meta whistleblower Sarah Wynn-Williams is testifying Wednesday afternoon before the Senate Judiciary Subcommittee on Crime and Counterterrorism, alleging Facebook cooperated with the Chinese government against U.S. interests.

“I saw Meta executives repeatedly undermine U.S. national security and betray American values,” Wynn-Williams said in her written testimony, obtained by The Hill. “They did these things in
secret to win favor with Beijing and build an $18 billion dollar business in China.”

The hearing comes after Wynn-Williams, who previously served as Facebook’s public policy director, released a book earlier this month detailing Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg’s alleged efforts to win favor with Chinese officials.

The event is scheduled to begin at 2:30 p.m. EDT.
