Thank you. You pretty eloquently summed up my thoughts about this entire situation. I'm sad, because Facebook runs some pretty cool open source projects. But

Thank you. You pretty eloquently summed up my thoughts about this entire situation. I'm sad, because Facebook runs some pretty cool open source projects. But I will no longer contribute to them if this is their attitude. It's about as far from community-oriented as I can imagine.

FB would be happy to replace the internet with Facebook. I think we've all known this for some time now. It's not their attitude, it's their entire reason for being. It's a form of totalitarianism that we don't have a word for; that's beyond most people's imagination. It would be fitting for FB to change their motto (?) to "We're not evil either." Lol

  Good joke there :) Do you believe Google also has shown intents to be totalitarian or "be evil" ? IMHO Google has handled their enormous power and popularity very well. Fair Disclaimer: I must confess I'm a google user, not affiliated to them in any other way (that I know of) though :D

    It's not what I believe. It's what the "data" shows. Sure you can believe the words. But it's actions that matter. And in that context "don't be evil" is comical at best.
