Meta declared the book contains unsubstantiated claims about the company’s operations, including alleged collaborations with the Chinese government regarding content censorship in exchange for market access. Although the memoir debuted to significant attention in the United States, ranking sixth on Amazon, the ruling now restricts Wynn-Williams' promotional activities.
Wynn-Williams, who has filed a whistleblower complaint against Meta alleging investor deception, maintains that she has the right to share her experiences. While her publisher, Macmillan, supports her freedom of speech, Meta's legal victory could impact how her story is presented to the public.
Meta spokesperson Andy Stone emphasized that the ruling reinforces that Wynn-Williams’ claims are misleading, setting the stage for an ongoing legal battle over the memoir's allegations and the implications they hold for the social media giant.
The memoir was released in the US earlier this week and will face scrutiny as its promotions are halted by this recent ruling.
