Well, I suppose it is worth a try.

Good luck, Zucker!

Hitler was on the cover of Time. So was Zuckerberg.

Coincidence?

[Sunnyways]

Just tick ‘I agree’ and all will be well.

Yes. So was Stephen Hawking and I'm pretty sure he doesn't belong anywhere near those two in conversation.

Zuckerberg is really only taking the George Costanza principle of "it's not a lie if you really believe it" to it's ultimate extent. His lack of concern that the worst creeps, liars, finks, rat bastards, conspiracists, tin-foils, and agents of hostile governments will use Facebook's line-in-the-sand to cause as much damage to society that they can possibly do really only confirms that Zuckerberg is and always has been a sociopath.

You need a refresher course on cherry picking.



Who wore the haircut better?

This article can be translated pretty easily into:

"It's FAR cheaper for Facebook to allow anyone to say anything they want to, even if it's provable lies designed for political electioneering purposes. So instead of doing our civic duty, we're going to try and save a few bucks and pretend it's in the name of 'freedom' "

However, Facebook has no requirement for 'civic duty'. They are about profit. If it's profitable to track your movements around the internet and in real life, then sell you to advertisers, then that's what they will do.

If big business had any 'civic duty', they'd clean up after themselves.

And people are forcing you to go onto FaceBook and read everything that people post.

No, but cell phone companies are forcing you to have the Facebook/Instagram app that you can't remove.

No, but cell phone companies are forcing you to have the Facebook/Instagram app that you can't remove.

But what could you lose by having it on your phone. Worried about being tracked, someone following your purchasing habits, someone going to your contacts and telling them all your little dirty secrets (if you have some). What do you have to fear.

Same thing for all those that do not want the Government tracking and monitoring them just because they own a gun.
