How many Chinese operative posts did they allow this year?
They were too busy banning and censoring conservatives, that's how. "Oh f—, how did we miss this?" Mark Zuckerberg said during a security brief, according to "An Ugly Truth."

Mark Zuckerberg was shocked to learn the Russian government had infiltrated Facebook during the 2016 election. "Oh f—, how did we miss this?" he said in a December 2016 meeting with Facebook's top brass, according to an upcoming book about the company, excerpted in Axios. The Facebook CEO had just been briefed on information that nobody — including the US government — knew at the time, The New York Times' Sheera Frenkel and Cecilia Kang write in their book, "An Ugly Truth," which comes out Tuesday. The book excerpt reveals additional details about what exactly went down when Zuckerberg and Facebook COO Sheryl Sandberg first learned about Russian interference on the platform, one of the company's biggest scandals. "An Ugly Truth" is based on existing reporting by The New York Times. Russia's goal, Facebook's chief security officer at the time, Alex Stamos, explained to the room of executives was to influence the 2016 US presidential election. The revelation was a shocking one. The book details that "no one else spoke as Zuckerberg and Sandberg drilled their chief security officer." The two executives asked why they were being told this now, nine months after Facebook's security team first spotted Russian activity. "Yup, Sheryl Sandberg yelled at me," Stamos wrote in his 2018 account of the discovery for the Washington Post. According to "An Ugly Truth," "Stamos felt that he had been trying to sound the alarm on Russia for months." "It was well within my remit to investigate foreign activity within the platform," Stamos said. "And we had appropriately briefed the people in our reporting chain … It became clear after that that it wasn't enough." Frenkel and Kang write that "no one at the company knew the full extent of the Russian election interference," according to Stamos, and that it could be much worse.
