We think of inventive/creative people as being very intelligent. Well FB is Mark Zuckerberg's MONSTER. He had no clue. How could he not?

How can any intelligent person create something and not know what the potential is? You create/get rich/go along and rake in the big bucks and then see how your creation is being used for evil and SAY NOTHING/DO NOTHING for years? Being greedy without being accountable/responsible until the sh*hits the fan and the damage is done ain't so hot. Tomorrow Zuck goes before Congress to "splain himself lucy ". Good luck with that. SIGH. How many others like Zuck are there out there having raked in the big bucks and learned what they created sucks and don't give a rat's a**?  :(:(:(

    Fame and money - the two most sought after commodities in all the world.   We idolize those who possess them (I want to be like so-and-so) and even envy them (I wish I had it like so-and-so).  Yet what these things do to nearly all those who obtain them is amplify their dark side – massive egos, arrogance, feeling superior to others, vanity. 

    Mr. Z had no idea his creation would be so successful.  But when it was, he reveled in its glory.  Boy genius.  Revolutionary.  Person of the year.  The titles stroked his ego.  He was famous!  And the money … the money just kept pouring in.  He was rich!  Who cares how his invention might be used, he was rich and famous - the epitome of success!

    Fame fades with time.  Sitting atop his fortunes, Mr. Z dilly-dallied with his creation, occasionally tweaking it enough to try to keep his name in the limelight.  As they do with most things, malcontents began to exploit his creation for their own gain.  Mr. Z knew about it, but if he said anything that might make his creation look bad, he might lose some of his fame and money (or, in the words of Gollum – “my precious”).  But when foreign countries began to use his creation to deceive its naive users, “the waste material hit the spinning turbine”.  He has now become the bad guy (wrong kind of fame).  Of course, like most rich people, he’ll find a way to spin it so that he comes out looking good again (just look at the great new security feature I (finally) put in).

    Never been into FB Shuhak but if I had and I found out that 87 million plus joiners had their entire lives(whatever they shared) stolen information-wise and used by a  partisan political manipulator to elect a president and was successful I'd at least bail. Maybe sue. I'm not the suing type but in a case as egregious as this I could be persuaded. Not for money but because I'd be so dam* pissed that I was betrayed and played. Every bit of info I'd have put there was known by nefarious hostile entities and used to insure a sham election and a bogus prez. I don't know what the expectation of security or privacy F B joiners were provided or promised but I'd know I was lied to for years. The scope of the scam/con is breathtaking. The number of actors who conspired to get donjohn in as prez boggles the mind. That is certainly DARK WEB and DEEP DARK goings on. What we SHOULD worry about and not that cockamamie bogus fanatic obsessive belief that the good folks in government are setting up goofydoofylucy for a fall. He does that so well  alone on his own no one can touch him. His arrogance coupled with his diarrhea of the mouth is all he needs to hang himself. His lawyer's office and home were invaded yesterday as you may have heard. They got a warrant to take all computers, files, memos, cell phones and the charges are BANK FRAUD, WIRE FRAUD and I think Obstruction of justice.  That's just the lawyer. He has own real estate investments separate from da big cheese. Goofydoofylucy said one word on a plane in answer to a question about Stormy Daniels. Then he threw Michael Cohen under the bus. That was Thursday. Monday the FEDS swooped. But it is the New York feds who are working the case. Mueller tossed it to them since it was out of the scope of his investigation. It's getting juicier every day. Meanwhile someone died in a fire in a Trump building and 6 firefighters were injured and so far the doofus has said nothing except that the building is "well-built". He tweets about all the folks he hates though. Plenty of time for that. What a piece of trash da big cheese doofygoofylucy is. Thank you for your thoughtful answer and Happy Tuesday! :)
