Changing the name is not going to do anything if you can't change the Policies.

Funny, meta is polish means finish line and illegal alcohol store in slang

Meta-mucil, for when you’re full of crap. Warning: may cause stomach cramps, headaches, beer muscles, random useless thoughts, and an ability to believe everything you read. Consult a physician…oh wait, you won’t believe in science either.

Congrats to the agency that sold him on this. Maybe McDonald’s can follow suit and rebrand itself to “food”.

Scammer selling people’s soul.

It’s not going to stick.

It's about inspiration Mr Mark has achieved what many can't ,it's not easy to run a search bigger company ,shit happens but we learn through mistake,bravo Mr Mark.

Dude went from people thinking he genius to thinking he like:

Changing the name from Facebook to Meta isn't gonna make us think the company is less bullshit.

Meta Data for us to harvest

Part of the problem is spreading false news that leads to more crimes, as well as human trafficking and spreading prostitution on Facebook

Meta, reminds me, Steve Jobs, when talking about marketing and changing directions of business.

New name, same dangerous shit. DeleteFacebook

The Super-Wealthy with A Modicum of Conscience, Empathy, Integrity &/or Patriotism Should VOLUNTARILY Step-Up & Contribute Their Fair $hare! After-All, How Much Do You Need to Hoard; as, the Country & Fellow Americans Struggle!?!

It seems to have a relationship with Ethiopia?But Facebook has more disadvantages than benefits.unregulated hate speech company

WhoCares

While facebook didnt have a funlovin vibe of a name it was unique enough to resemble social gathering whereas meta just sounds too cyber corp (even tho the other def of meta is about 4th wall breaking and overal reflection which is wht i think theyre going 4)

Still the same management, the same board members, and the same bullshit!🙄

Fire the strategist...

13 Thoughts I Had About Meta, the Company Formerly Known as FacebookMark Zuckerberg wants 'Meta' to be eventually seen as a 'metaverse company.' He really does look like Data.
