Unethical human experimentation

It may be worth adding a bit to the controversies section on Facebook's controversial human experimentation, and how Sandberg has expressed regret. See for example, this article in the Washington post and this related article on whether or not this was unethical. That said, I don't think those two citations are sufficient, and I'm not clear on Sandberg's level of responsibility for this human experimentation, though she is Facebook's Chief Operating Officer. And it's certainly an open question as to how unethical it was; it'd get you kicked out of academia in a hurry, but is perhaps not considered unethical in the corporate world. In any case, it seems Facebook will continue this experimentation. --Yamla (talk) 14:30, 3 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Definitely. For such a controversial personality, it is disturbing that Wikipedia dedicated more room for her alleged 'philanthropy' than to her crimes. She is personally responsible for adding obstacles to the Muller investigation on Russian interference in the US election ( https://www.cnn.com/2017/10/12/politics/sheryl-sandberg-facebook-russia-ads/index.html ), to unethical human experimentation ( https://www.theguardian.com/technology/2014/jul/02/facebook-apologises-psychological-experiments-on-users ) that amounted to damage on a larger scale than that of Josef Menegele a century ago. ( https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/morning-mix/wp/2014/07/03/sheryl-sandberg-not-sorry-for-facebook-mood-manipulation-study/ ). I would like to see this article becoming more objective and source-oriented. Suscipedepre (talk) 01:12, 8 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]

"Philanthropist"

What's with the pushing that she's a philanthropist and author? Many other billionaires have done much more than she has but don't get this much emphasis. There's hardly anything about it in the article body. I'm not saying she isn't one, I'm saying it seems like this article has been touched by a PR team. toobigtokale (talk) 23:36, 17 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]
