Facebook is not evil, despite the disproportionately loud grumblings of its critics --- which (as Mark Zuckerberg recently pointed out) is a small fraction of its 400-million-plus user base. But Facebook is also not a non-profit despite Zuckerberg's claim that they're not in "this for the money." On Wednesday's press conference, Zuckerberg said : "It might seem weird, we’re not doing this to make more money. For all the people inside the company, that could not be more true. It’s such a big disconnect that we’re doing this for the money." Methinks the Zuckerberg doth protest too much. Zuckerberg is not a saint and he's also not the same 19-year old who allegedly mocked his users for trusting him with their information, but somewhere in between lies reality.
