I don't think it was the main purpose of the hearing I believe. As we were chatting in the Discord, Zuck didn't testify under oath. I believe that's the main cause that he could dodge a lot of questions that really mattered, at least for people concerned about Facebook's domination of our data privacy and censorship.

It was like a "Well Zuck, you blew it, now sit and let's reach a settlement that would benefit our image and yours" meeting.

The result that will become is more social media and censorship regulations, that would benefit Facebook as a social media monopoly.
