The employee said she had "blood on my hands" as political strife had broken out in many nations following Facebook's lack of action.

A recently fired Facebook employee wrote a memo on her last day at the company accusing the tech giant of routinely ignoring or otherwise not prioritizing fake accounts' efforts to manipulate elections and political climates around the world, according to a Monday BuzzFeed report.

Zhang described a monumental workload that she said resulted in many such fake networks slipping through the cracks in what appears to be more evidence of Facebook struggling to stem the spread of misinformation and election interference on its platform.Zhang said she found a series of inauthentic accounts — a term used to describe engagement on the site involving bot accounts — used in an opposition campaign to promote Azerbaijani President Ilham Aliyev.

Zhang wrote in her memo that Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg prioritized networks concerning the US and Western Europe and that other nations took a back seat on the company's radar. Zhang described an indifference attributed to"slapdash and haphazard accidents" rather than malicious intent, per the report.
