CryptoWorld News reports that Meta's Chief Technology Officer Andrew Bosworth is strongly pushing a keyboard monitoring tool and refusing employee opt-outs, leading to intense internal turmoil and protests from over 1,500 staff. The monitoring tool is forcibly installed on employees' computers, recording keystrokes, mouse clicks, and screenshots. Angry employees distributed flyers titled "Employee Data Extraction Factory" in the office area, questioning how to disable the monitoring. Bosworth coldly responded that employees have no option to opt out of data collection on company computers. In an internal memo, he explicitly stated that Meta's vision is that future work will mainly be performed by AI agents, with humans playing the role of guiding, reviewing, and assisting in improvements.

There is no exit option; these four words expose Silicon Valley's arrogance.

Bosworth's words sound as if AI has already taken over the world, and workers have lost even the freedom to use their keyboards.

Forcing remaining employees to install it, those who leave actually escape unscathed—this screening mechanism is quite darkly humorous.

1500 people protest, distribute flyers internally, Meta's internal PR crisis is more serious than product bugs.

Jumping from the metaverse to AI, Meta's management style hasn't changed: push first, then talk, right?
