Powells.com, the largest independent book seller I'm aware of.

Barnes and Noble has it. don't buy from amazon.

Even better, buy it through bookshop.org and also support a local bookstore: https://bookshop.org/p/books/careless-people-a-cautionary-tale-of-power-greed-and-lost-idealism/22213433

The hard cover is on back order, but they sell an ebook version.

"Book from a whistleblower - titled 'Meta' - that was declined from being promoted is now a best seller on Amazon"

Sometimes I hate the whole "proper prose title" that articles use

Edit:
Perhaps it's "Book from whistleblower that Meta blocked from being promoted is now a best seller on Amazon".
I didn't read the article. The title broke my brain

[-] [email protected] 21 points 3 months ago

Heck, prose aside, is there something wrong with commas?

[-] [email protected] 4 points 3 months ago

Those are used to replace "and" obviously.

[-] [email protected] 4 points 3 months ago

It's just that punctuation is not meant to be used in titles.

English has a bunch of weird rules.

"Book from a whistleblower - titled 'Meta' - that was declined from being promoted is now a best seller on Amazon"

No? "Book from a whistleblower that Meta blocked from being promoted is now a best seller on Amazon ".

[-] [email protected] 6 points 3 months ago

Book from a whistleblower, that Meta blocked from being promoted, is now a best seller on Amazon

[-] [email protected] 2 points 3 months ago

Book from a whistleblower—which Meta blocked from being promoted—is now a best seller on Amazon.

Meta promotes books?
Updated the comment

Funniest thing, I would’ve never known about this book if Meta hadn’t tried to block the sales of it. Definitely going to read it and see how it is.

I wonder if we could get Barbara to endorse or at least comment on this book on whatever social media she's on.

How the fuck is an anti-disparagement clause even allowed to exist and how the fuck is it enforceable 8 years after she no longer works for the company, that's absolutely bullshit.

Normally I would hope for the government to step in and say this is not remotely legal. But unfortunately our government is currently in the hands of billionaire buddy Donnie F Trump.
