Facebook whistleblower Frances Haugen is drawing fresh attention as a new film, The Social Reckoning, reaches cinemas and streamers. Starring Mikey Madison and Jeremy Allen White, the film recreates her choice to expose Facebook's internal research.

Haugen said publicly she has "extreme worry" about a culture shift at Meta and believes Zuckerberg is taking dangerous risks with AI. She said she hopes the film inspires others to act, telling The Verge she wants it to inspire more whistleblowers.
