Facebook Inc. changes name to Meta

Facebook Inc is re-christening itself Meta Platforms Inc, decoupling its corporate identity from the eponymous social network mired in toxic content, and highlighting a shift to an emerging computing platform focused on virtual reality.

It's just hype, really. The Facebook brand remains. No sane business with billions of users and that type of brand recognition would change their main product name. Google did something similar, naming their holding company Alphabet, but that didn't change Google as a brand.

The intent with these changes isn't to change the brand.

No, a poll will go here and usually follows an article. Surely you should know this by now.
