"textContent": "Meta is suing a former employee, Sarah Wynn-Williams, for publishing a book about her experiences working there.\n\nShe was invited to panel at a major book festival, but because the court had threatened to fine her, she dared not speak or make any gestures.\n\nThe book is called _Careless People_. If you want to buy the book, or any book, I urge you not to obtain it from Amazon. By paying cash for it anonymously, you can fight against Orwellian surveillance.\n\nI have found a local bookstore that is willing to let me order books anonymously, paying cash in advance, and I occasionally do that. That enables me to order new books (but not used books) that are not available in a physical book store. Since the store does not know my name, I think its request for cash in advance is entirely reasonable.\n\nMaybe you too can find a bookstore near you that will do this for you.",
