    Sites need to include this language to protect themselves from malicious law suits. But they don’t need to actually do stupid, disrespectful stuff with that power. Remember the Zuck quote when asked why people gave him their data: “they trust me, dumb f*cks”. When someone shows you who they are, trust them. He should be banned from having user data.
