Hasnain says:

I haven’t read the book yet but man the Streisand effect is in full swing here and I don’t understand the PR strategy by Meta here.

Looking at some of the claims (especially the one where Sheryl played with the assistant's hair and the one where she invited the author into her bed on a private jet) - they’re so outlandish that I feel either:

1. The author is out of touch with reality and needs mental help
2. They’re true

(It’s hard to imagine an in between here)

“Following the decision, Meta spokesperson Andy Stone said in a post on X: "This ruling affirms that Sarah Wynn-Williams' false and defamatory book should never have been published."”
