Facebook is a public company now, their goal is to generate value for their shareholders. All other goals like 'connect the world' are secondary.

- s3r3nity 12y agoOh come on - it's not like we think Google abandoned their "do no evil" mantra or their mission to organize the world's information simply because they went public...or Apple stopped designing great products and revolting against mainstay ways we view our relationships with technology. Granted, there may be additional considerations, but I doubt any person who has worked there would say that optimizing shareholder value is #1 priority (though I do believe the former was abandoned for other reasons, but that's a separate discussion...)
