What do you guys think of Mark Zuckerberg? After watching The Social Network, I was curious to see what this guy was really like. I did some research, watched some interviews and he seems like a pretty decent guy.
I know there is a lot of controversy surrounding the allegations of him "stealing facebook" and I think it's bs. If those twins who claimed they had the original idea for facebook, then they would have done it. Besides, people get screwed over all the time, it happens. ..Does anyone think they were justified in suing him??

Them selling your information to ad companies so they can target ads specifically to one person and the issue of human interaction are two entirely separate topics. And I fully agree with you that it's ridiculous how actual face to face human interaction has taken a back seat to writing on someones Facebook wall. But, I guess the reason that I don't have a problem with the whole tracking thing it is because people have to option to control how much information they give out for the world to see. You don't have to "like" stuff, you don't have to put your phone number out there for everyone to see, and you don't have to update it with your every move.

I guess in actuality I can see why it would ruffle some feathers. Just to me personally, I say let them gear ads towards me all they want, I'm too broke to buy any of their shit anyway haha.

I posted that picture because it was funny and ironic. My earlier post was referencing the movie and his portrayal in the movie. He is made out to be a douchebag in the movie but in interviews with him he doesn't seem like a terrible guy but the bottom line is I don't know him and I never will so I can't say shit about him. Also I don't care because it does not have a great impact on my life.
