NY Times Book Review: An Anti-Facebook Manifesto, by an Early Facebook Investor

Essays and Op-Eds

USA Today was the first newspaper to publish my thoughts on the dark side of internet platforms. They published three op-eds.

(USA Today #1) “I invested early in Google and Facebook. Now they terrify me.”

https://www.usatoday.com/story/opinion/2017/08/08/my-google-and-facebook-investments-made-fortune-but-now-they-menace/543755001/

(USA Today #2) “If Mark Zuckerberg wants forgiveness, he’s going to need to come clean first”

https://www.usatoday.com/story/opinion/2017/10/10/if-facebooks-mark-zuckerberg-wants-forgiveness-hes-going-need-come-clean-first-roger-ncmanee-column/744520001/

(USA Today #3) “Despite Congressional testimony, Facebook still isn’t fully cooperating”

https://www.usatoday.com/story/opinion/2017/11/01/facebooks-algorithms-make-profitable-we-shouldnt-expect-them-change-roger-mcnamee-column/819353001/

(The Guardian) “How Facebook and Google threaten public health – and democracy”

https://www.theguardian.com/commentisfree/2017/nov/11/facebook-google-public-health-democracy

(Washington Monthly Essay) “How to Fix Facebook – Before It Fixes Us”

https://washingtonmonthly.com/magazine/january-february-march-2018/how-to-fix-facebook-before-it-fixes-us/

(The Guardian #2) “I was Mark Zuckerberg’s mentor. Today I would tell him: your users are in peril”
