Together, these clauses - routinely used by Meta to silence would-be whistleblowers - meant after Wynn-Williams's book was published, Meta got its arbitrator - a lawyer paid by Meta to adjudicate disputes instead of an actual judge - to order her to never promote or even speak about her book. 21/

When she and I appeared onstage together in London for the launch for my book *Enshittification* last year, she fell silent and assumed a blank expression any time the subject of Meta came up, and she didn't sign or sell books afterward: www.barbican.org.uk/whats-on/202... 26/
When she won the British Book Award, she did not speak to accept it, and the cover of her book was blurred out on the overhead screen: www.theguardian.com/books/2026/m... 27/
Nevertheless, when she was to speak - about a subject other than her book - at the Hay Festival with Tim Wu and Carole Cadwalladr, Meta sent a legal threat to the festival and Wynn-Williams, claiming that if by speaking about *anything* in public, she would violate the arbitrator's order. 29/
Accordingly, Wynn-Williams maintained silence and a blank facial expression for an hour on stage, *saying not one word*, while Wu and Cadwalladr carried on a discussion. *Careless People* was withdrawn from the festival shop on the days she appeared there: www.theguardian.com/technology/2... 30/
This act of anti-ice cream thuggery has pushed Wynn-Williams over the edge and now she's sued to invalidate her contract: www.theguardian.com/technology/2... 32/
