I think Zuckerberg is just helping the internet to learn and evolve. Without his evil products, we wouldn't understand the psychological harm of the internet. These will clear up in the next 5-10 years.

Every evil person out there, this is your road to salvation. Just say it was a lesson and fully expose every way you've exploited the system and the way others can do the same. Actually, isn't this a common thing? Where people get rich then support laws against doing what they did to get rich?

  In particular, you might be thinking of Joseph Kennedy, who made his fortune with insider trading and was later made SEC Chairman by FDR, where he outlawed the methods he used to build his own fortune.

My bad. I didn’t realize we should be thanking him for making billions off of evil products while teaching us a lesson about psychological harm on the internet. Lesson learned! /s Edit: Sorry for the snark. The idea that Zuckerberg is “helping” us with his lack of integrity is so absurd that I assumed you were trolling. It’s not just absurd but dangerous as the other reply to your comment stated better than I did.

  Thanking him would be wrong. But I acknowledge that Facebook has provided early example into the real harms of social networking + data collection + psychological manipulation via ux. If Facebook became prominent later, after stronger ai was available to trap users attention, it could be a disaster. Are we inoculated? I am not sure. Also not sure why you are being downvoted, I think your comment makes a salient point and some snark is fine as long as it is not a personal attack.
