Richard Blumenthal
A. · Response
Antigone Davis
QuestionBlumenthal directly asks Davis to commit to ending "Finstas" (secret teen second accounts).
ResponseDavis again frames Finstas as teen-driven behavior rather than a Facebook product/feature, and doesn't commit to ending anything. Blumenthal explicitly says on the record this isn't a real answer.
