I mean, the (I think) CEO said that the predator problem on their platform "is not a problem, but an opportunity".

I know it's taken out of context, and his take was along the lines of trying to improve child safety and explore tools and way how to prevent it, but the whole interview was still pretty unhinged, and it was not a good take.

If I recall from the interview, the context was that he was being accused of not having proper controls to protect kids. He doubled down and said they did already and that predators were a business opportunity.
