Facebook got the Last Week Tonight treatment Sunday night, with host John Oliver slamming the company for its business model, its content moderation, its recently released apology ads, and Mark Zuckerberg's virtual reality trip to a disaster-stricken Puerto Rico.
“Facebook was doing exactly what it was built for, that’s why it was worth $600 billion. You didn’t build history’s most profitable data harvesting machine by accident,” Oliver said.
