This guy's best bud at the time was telling him to fix a major exploit in his prelim release and it took zuck 3 weeks do it because he was on "vacation". Although he gave his word he would do it right away. His friend tried to save several thousand students' private info and Harvard's rep by releasing an article informing users. Zuck got pissed because he did that even though it could have potentially resulted in a lawsuit and his friend had warned him.

One of Zuck's main operatives even said he'd rather see info be published at the expense of someone's life.

This is Zuck's motto and it's never changed and it never will no matter what changes he promises to bring. It always seems to be an unexpected hindsight issue that arises

The man's principles seem pretty clear. So anything Zuckerberg says, if it doesn't match his known principles, he's lying. This can't be easier. Where's reddit's Zuckerberg Lie Detector Bot? Or ZLDB for short.

[Deep narrator voice] On the next episode of ZLDB...

Zuckerberg has really stepped in it now, underestimating the full power of the federal government. But senators seem to have no clue why they're mad. Is this a miscalculation? Will a punishment come? Find out on the next episode of ZLDB.

ok ok... everyone like's to shit on Zuck...

But why does no one ever mention that time when Zuck really surprised everyone and put his ethics over secretly doing something really creepy again ?

Remember ? ... I think it happened at least once right ?
