      Make no mistake: this model *will* change—either after large destructive upheavals, or sooner, proactively. It’s up to Zuck where in the history books he wants to be. Besides, “those” people aren’t worth much to advertisers anyway and even poor people pay do for phones & minutes.https://twitter.com/matthewstoller/status/976808283334901760 …

      Also, what the heck? Many of us have been screaming from the rooftops and we don’t have the kind of data Facebook has to better figure all this out. Also, Facebook isn’t building “a community.” That’s not how the world works!! Someone send an emergency sociologist to Menlo Park.pic.twitter.com/GvoiapjTBg

      They must then have close to zero influence on anything of importance. Otherwise what is this talk of building “a” community of a user-base of two billion? It’s not just very very wrong and naive—it’s a dangerous way for a social media company to think.https://twitter.com/beh_zod/status/976814381085454336 …

      Facebook has sociologists, very good ones. They’re working hard to prevent these kinds of things. But a handful of people in 25,000 can’t solve all of this.

          His personality type is willful, plow forward and consolidate people beneath him into a community. It is a personality type. If it was more pronounced he'd be a cult leader but lets not go there.

          And companies need to know that uploading their customer email lists to Facebook Business is one of the more stupis things to do. Facebook is allowed to freely co-use all that data!

          Now imagine. Most customer-data uploaded to Facebook Business by companies hasn't been uploaded with consent of the customers. All that data should be deleted from Facebook servers.
