Facebook took center stage this week, first at its F8 developers conference, where CEO Mark Zuckerberg confronted public distrust in his company and touted a new mantra: “The future is private.” Facebook also announced updates to Messenger and its dating and marketplace services, and an overall new, minimalist look for the site.
Later in the week came news that Facebook is banning high-profile extremists from its platforms and is reportedly working with the Federal Trade Commission on an impending settlement for alleged privacy violations. The settlement could include a fine of up to $5 billion.
But it wasn’t all about Zuck and Co. Here are some stories you don’t want to miss:
