The far richer and more powerful of the founders didn’t leave a lot on the table. Few hundred million maybe? Initially it was thought Kuom left a lot. That was later clarified. Kuom didn’t have an early departure either. Another thing that got clarified. Action may have left much more and did actually leave early enough. Especially proportionally. However, the WhatsApp deal may have been possible without his saying yes being needed. Both have gotten good publicity for being “good” people and for the people with their anti FB rhetoric. Even though Kuom has not done much. Even being for Trump’s authoritarian tendencies into 2017, if I’m not mistaken. At best Acton had some naivety. I still find it hard to believe the biggest reason was naivety versus getting paid huge amounts of money then when that has settled, get back to caring about things like privacy. It’s pretty easy to care about privacy or this issue or that issue when you could lose 99% of your money and still never work a day in your life. It also does not in my opinion, deserve much praise, nor assumptions in their favor. The general status quo and all its issues were likely not a priority for either founder until they were filthy rich. Again just my opinion and assumptions.
