China blasts Mark Zuckerberg as he experience the pressure in China – once more.
On Wednesday, an influential social media account that is associated with the official Beijing Daily dragged the creator of Meta Platforms Inc. through the mud for his earlier complaints of Chinese censorship and suspected theft of intellectual property. The lengthy editorial was published after it was reported by the Wall Street Journal that Meta was in talks with Tencent Holdings Ltd. about helping market the Quest VR headset in China.

This was despite the fact that Meta’s primary social media services—ranging from Facebook to Instagram—were blocked.
A post on WeChat that was shared by the Beijing Daily and received more than 100,000 views claimed that Zuckerberg “dropped a rock on his own foot.” You shattered the wok, and you want to sit down to a Chinese lunch now?
The connection that Zuckerberg has had with China has been volatile at times. During the height of a campaign to court leaders in the industry with the most users in the world, the CEO of Meta was famously photographed jogging through a smog-filled Beijing and greeting the internet-czar of the time, Lu Wei.

This courtship fell apart after Lu was arrested on charges of alleged corruption and a backlash erupted in the United States against the efforts of internet companies to get access to China. Since then, the entrepreneur has criticized ByteDance Ltd.’s TikTok, which is now a serious competitor, for alleged privacy violations as well as the erasure of content.
China blasts Mark Zuckerberg In a public statement, Zuckerberg has also accused China of stealing technology. TikTok is now being investigated by government officials in the United States, who are considering whether or not to prohibit the short video app on the basis of national security concerns.

Requests for comments from both Meta and Tencent were not answered by their respective representatives. The South China Morning Post was the first publication to report on the editorial.
According to what the editorial stated, Zuckerberg is “now searching for a better solution to his China problem.” “But the biggest obstacle to that may be himself,” the speaker said.
