I Had been watching the Senate hearings. Mr  Zuckerberg is a very articulate young man. His speech was straight to the point. I felt bad for him. Whether he knew or actively participated in the situation is not for us to decide however:

This world of technology has grown by leaps and bounds. From a Motorola StarTac flip phone to todays’s iOS and Android smartphones and tablets. Add that with social media and search engines, how could one even for a moment think they have any kind of privacy???? Have we learned nothing from the massive security breaches that as fast as these platforms have grown for our entertainment, productivity and in general the greater good, so have those that want to attack, abuse, enfluence and steal.

I do not see FaceBook as the enemy. They like so many other banks, department stores and restaurants did not keep up with the changes and threats to protect themselves and we the end users.

So I hope the outcome is not to crucify Mark or FaceBook but to find solutions to a never ending problem for all platforms.
