    He’s victim of fake ads that impersonate him. Does he intend to sue Facebook and the ads creators? He has the means to hire a lawyer.

    Facebook and Mark Z have no shame, and users don’t care enough to leave, so speaking up is not enough to make Facebook behave.

    If I commit a 100.000 fraud, I’ll go to jail for quite a while

    Zucker commits 16 billion Doll in fraud, will he go to jail, and will he go to jail for a fee million years at least?

    Of course not, they’ll pay a “penaltiy” tax and that will be the end of it

    The fact that something like Facebook exists without public oversight or control is absolutely insane … if your national public rely heavily on one source for the majority of the information and communication, what do you think is going to happen? Is like saying that there is only one company that owns every newspaper across the country and they are allowed to self regulate themselves.

    It’s like Joseph Goebbels said about media and communications ‘Think of the press as a great keyboard on which the government can play.’

    Except this time, we’ve allowed multinational corporations at the keyboard to play the music that we all dance to
