Facebook changes its name to Meta. Here's why

Facebook changes its name to Meta. Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg said his company is rebranding itself as Meta in an effort to encompass its virtual-reality vision for the future — what Zuckerberg calls the “metaverse”. “Facebook is the world's social media platform and they are being accused of creating something that is harmful to people and society,” said marketing consultant Laura Ries. “But in our DNA we are a company that builds technology to connect people.” Facebook, the app, along with Instagram, WhatsApp and Messenger, are here to stay; the company's corporate structure also won't change. It probably won't even get people to stop calling the social media giant Facebook — or a “social media giant,” for that matter.
