Whoever's really in charge of Facebook, whether that's Zuckerberg or not, can consider the congressional hearing a resounding success. I recently saw him ridiculed as "speaking from a booster seat" by one commentator, and everyone here knows what "ideas guy" is an euphemism for. The more frivolous commentary and petty insults he gets the less threatening he seems.

And as usual in American Politics and/or debates the focus has shifted to be about the petty stuff of the individual, rather than focusing on the actual topic at hand. Pretty soon everyone will be so busy criticizing Zuck they'll forget why he was even speaking to Congress in the first place. Americans love a good gossip, to the determent of actually getting anything done.
- sgtmas2006 9y agoWhile I expected nothing more than what it has been, the reality was painfully beaten into me when I read "can this guy just go to jail already???" It's a sad state of affairs. I only heard part of the second day, but one of the ladies asked a question about the Obama administration using that survey leading to the huge amount of data gathered. Had it not been only four minutes, I feel this is the question that would have lead to the most important discussion of why it was not against terms for that administration to use Facebook data, but was for Analytica (Other than the fact that it was sold to them, but I believe unless Zuck passed the buck, it could have lead to discussion about the data itself being the problem, not the selling to Analytica.)
