When Mark Zuckerberg testifies to the U.S. Congress next week, the Facebook chief executive will face off with lawmakers who have long been itching to confront him – on everything from a privacy mishap involving 87 million users to a litany of issues that have dogged the company for years.
“I think we’re at a moment of reckoning. It’s really high noon for Facebook and the tech industry,” Democratic Sen. Richard Blumenthal (Conn.), one of the senators who is set to grill Zuckerberg, said in an interview.
