1
Mr. Zuckerberg, let me start with you.
2
Did I hear you say in your opening statement that there's no link between mental health and social media use?
3
Senator, what I said is I think it's important to look at the science.
4
I know it's people widely talk about this as if that is something that's already been proven.
5
And I think that the bulk of the scientific evidence does not support that.
6
Well, really, let me just remind you of some of the science from your own company.
7
Instagram studied the effect of your platform on teenagers.
8
Let me just read you some quotes from the Wall Street Journal's report on this.
9
Company researchers found that Instagram is harmful for a sizable percentage of teenagers, most notably teenage girls.
10
Here's a quote from your own study.
11
Quote, we make body image issues worse for one in three teen girls.
12
Here's another quote.
13
Teens blamed Instagram.
14
This is your study for increases in the rate of anxiety and depression.
15
This reaction was unprompted and consistent across all groups.
16
That's your study.
17
Senator, we try to understand the feedback and how people feel about the services.
18
We can improve.
19
Wait a minute.
20
Your own study says that you make life worse for one in three teenage girls.
21
You increase anxiety and depression.
22
That's what it says.
23
And you're here testifying to us in public that there's no link.
24
You've been doing this for years.
25
For years you've been coming in public and testifying under oath that there's absolutely no link.
26
Your product is wonderful.
27
The science is nascent.
28
Full speed ahead.
29
While internally you know full well your product is a disaster for teenagers.
30
And yet you keep right on doing what you're doing.
31
Right?
32
That's not true.
33
That's not true.
34
Let me show you some other facts I know that you're familiar with.
35
You can carry the data points if you want.
36
That's not a question.
37
That's not a question.
38
Those are facts, Mr. Zuckerberg.
39
That's not a question.
40
Those aren't facts.
41
Let me show you some more facts.
42
Here are some information from a whistleblower who came before the Senate, testified under oath in public.
43
He worked for you.
44
He's a senior executive.
45
Here's what he showed he found when he studied your products.
46
So, for example, this is girls between the ages of 13 and 15 years old.
47
37 percent of them reported that they had been exposed to nudity on the platform unwanted in the last seven days.
48
Twenty four percent said that they had experienced unwanted sexual advances.
49
They've been propositioned in the last seven days.
50
17% said they had encountered self-harm content pushed at them in the last seven days.
51
Now, I know you're familiar with these stats because he sent you an email where he lined it all out.
52
I mean, we've got a copy of it right here.
53
My question is, who did you fire for this?
54
Who got fired because of that?
55
Senator, we study all this because it's important and we want to improve our services.
56
Well, you just told me a second ago that you studied it, but there was no linkage. Who did you fire?
57
I said you mischaracterized 37% of teenage girls between 13 and 15 were exposed to unwanted nudity in a week on Instagram.
58
You knew about it.
59
Who did you fire?
60
Senator, this is why we're building all.
61
Who did you fire?
62
Senator, that's I don't think that that's who did you fire?
63
I'm not going to answer that.
64
Because you didn't fire anybody, right?
65
You didn't take any significant action.
66
It's appropriate to talk about individual HR decisions.
67
Do you know who's sitting behind you?
68
You've got families from across the nation whose children are either severely harmed or gone,
69
and you don't think it's appropriate to talk about steps that you took?
70
The fact that you didn't fire a single person?
71
Let me ask you this.
72
Let me ask you this.
73
Have you compensated any of the victims?
74
Sorry?
75
Have you compensated any of the victims?
76
These girls, have you compensated them?
77
I don't believe so.
78
Why not?
79
Don't you think they deserve some compensation for what your platform has done?
80
Help with counseling services, help with dealing with the issues that your services caused?
81
Our job is to make sure that we build tools to help keep people safe.
82
Are you going to compensate them?
83
Senator, our job and what we take seriously is making sure
84
that we build industry living tools to find harmful to make money, take it off the services to make money and to build tools that empower parents.
85
So you didn't take any action.

101
I'm not going to go through the things that your families have suffered.
102

103
And everybody, you do the street being efforts to make sure that.
104
No one has to go through the types of things that your families have had to suffer.
105
You know, why?
106
Why, Mr. Zuckerberg, why should your company not be sued for this?
107
Why is it that you can claim you hide behind a liability shield?
108
You can't be held accountable.
109
Shouldn't you be held accountable personally?
110
Will you take personal responsibility?
111
Senator, I think I've already answered this.
112
I mean, this is.

We'll try it again.
114
Will you take personal responsibility?
115
Senator, I view my job and the job of our company is building the best tools
116

120
Oh, nonsense.

124
Will you commit to compensating the victims?
125
Will you set up a compensation fund with your money?
126
Senator, I think these are complicated...
127
With your money.
128
Senator, these are complicated issues.
129
Yes, no, that's not a complicated question, though.
130
That's a yes or no. Will you set up a victim's compensation fund with your money, the money you made on these families sitting behind you?
131
Yes or no?
132
Senator, I don't think that that's...
133
My job is to make sure we build good tools.
134
My job is to make sure that your job is to be responsible for what your company has done.
135
You've made billions of dollars on the people sitting behind you here.
136
You've done nothing to help them.
137
You've done nothing to compensate them.
138
You've done nothing to put it right.

Was ist die Shadowing-Technik?

Shadowing ist eine wissenschaftlich fundierte Sprachlerntechnik, die ursprünglich für die professionelle Dolmetscherausbildung entwickelt und durch den Polyglotten Dr. Alexander Arguelles populär gemacht wurde. Die Methode ist einfach aber wirkungsvoll: Du hörst englisches Audio von Muttersprachlern und wiederholst es sofort laut — wie ein Schatten, der dem Sprecher mit nur 1–2 Sekunden Verzögerung folgt. Anders als passives Hören oder Grammatikübungen zwingt Shadowing dein Gehirn und deine Mundmuskulatur, gleichzeitig echte Sprachmuster zu verarbeiten und zu reproduzieren. Studien zeigen, dass es Aussprachegenauigkeit, Intonation, Rhythmus, verbundene Sprache, Hörverständnis und Sprechflüssigkeit signifikant verbessert — was es zu einer der effektivsten Methoden für die IELTS Speaking-Vorbereitung und reale englische Kommunikation macht.
