On this week’s episode of More or Less, Meta kills DEI and fact-checking (right after their $27B moderation exit), Zuck's talking "masculine energy" on Rogan, and TikTok's facing a ban while DJI mysteriously drops US flight restrictions. It's not even February.
We also share opinions on: • why tech's gender gap persists (18% of CS grads are women)
• whether Elon's X could inherit TikTok's distribution
• what NYC's congestion tax reveals about tech's bubble
Just another week in Silicon Valley's great realignment.
