Reportedly, Facebook’s parent company, Meta is the most dominant social media player in the world, with nearly half of the global population using its apps. According to a report, the company owns a quarter of the digital advertising market.
Reportedly, metaverse was announced in October as a platform to introduce people to shared virtual worlds and experiences. According to a report, the company has poached metaverse employees from Microsoft and Apple divisions that work on augmented reality, and has officially rebranded some products such as its oculus virtual reality headsets with the metaverse name. Reportedly, metaverse will imagine new ways to experience concerts and conventions.
According to the report, since 2012 the company focus switched from computers to mobile phones, leading to much growth. Reportedly, Meta has fourteen times more employees than in 2012, and its market value is $840 billion (€740 billion).
Reportedly, some employees advocated fixing issues such as extremist posts rather than hurtling towards a new branch of ideas, though there is the option of unfriending or reporting a post to Facebook or the police.
