>Facebook model is phenomenally successful, clearly Zuckerberg must be right. That's quite a jump. Couldn't it also be that Zuckerberg is very good at marketing and taking advantage of being out front? Why would you assume his privacy model is the reason Facebook got big? It's my impression that Facebook got big inspite of it which tells me he isn't right at all. He's just not wrong enough to overcome the perceived value of using his site.
