Every December, Yahoo! is selected as the “Company of the Year” by taking into account parameters such as market performance and other achievements. The winner of this award for the year 2021 was Microsoft. In addition, the opposite, namely, the company that upset them the most, is named “Worst Company of the Year” based on audience polls.
As a result of a survey of 1,541 participants, Facebook earned the title of “Worst Company of the Year”. We can say that we partially understood the reason why the name of the company was changed to Meta. Among the various reasons why individuals chose Facebook/Meta as the “Worst Company of the Year” is the perception of censorship, especially by right-wing and conservative voices; these people have taken a stand against Facebook on the grounds that it hinders the “right of free speech” of individuals. Some users, on the contrary, say Facebook/Meta is responsible for the rise of far-right extremist views. So it seems that Facebook has failed anyone this year!
