The papers are named 'Facebook Files'. They show: Facebook wants much money. Facebook knows that bad content harms users. For example hate messages or lies. But Facebook spreads these messages. This brings more clicks and ads.
The film shows violence in the USA. People attack the Kapitol on January 6 2021. This is an important house for politics. Facebook helps in this attack. Because the site brings angry people together.
Mark Zuckerberg is a strict boss. He says: Every person writes all things on Facebook. He calls this freedom of speech. Critics say: This is only a trick for more profit. The film wants people to think. Social media needs better control.
