San Francisco, USA: Facebook changed its parent company name to “Meta” on Thursday to its virtual reality vision for the future.
However, Facebook, Instagram, and WhatsApp, which are used by billions across the globe will keep their names under the rebranding critics have called an effort to distract from the platform’s dysfunction.
CEO Mark Zuckerberg said during an annual developers’ conference.
“We’ve learned a lot from struggling with social issues and living under closed platforms, and now it is time to take everything that we’ve learned and help build the next chapter,”
“I am proud to announce that starting today, our company is now Meta. Our mission remains the same, still about bringing people together, our apps and their brands, they’re not changing,” he added.
“Their meaningless name change should not distract from the investigation, regulation, and real, independent oversight needed to hold Facebook accountable,” the Meta said in a statement.
Announcing @Meta — the Facebook company’s new name. Meta is helping to build the metaverse, a place where we’ll play and connect in 3D. Welcome to the next chapter of social connection.
