Also if you get banned on Fakebook your virtual reality devices become useless.

Already read some news suggesting it could be a non event like Google to Alphabet... guess time will tell. I kinda went 'meh' to meta...

It is a standard corporate practice to have a parent corporation that
manages other corporations - also, it allows for upward mobility in the divisions. Now Facebook can have a CEO that's not named Zuckerberg who
reports to the CEO named Zuckerberg of Meta - same for Instagram and
Whatsapp.

I wonder what's happening with the stock, will Facebook stock become Meta stock, and will Zuckerberg still have a super majority, meaning he can't be voted out?
