Facebook Saga


More love from Facebook:
(ongoing)
  • 2011/May: "Facebook Admits to Smearing Google." (shocker)
  • 2010/June: Apparently Facebooks CEO, Mark Zuckerberg was at a lack of words when questioned about privacy. Sharon Gaudin, from Computerworld writes "Facebook's CEO sidestepped questions about facebook privacy rather than giving the audience real, thoughtful answers. ... Facebook has been knocked about recently because of user concerns that the social networking firm is playing fast and loose with user information. Criticism mounted significantly last month after Facebook unveiled a bevy of tools that allow user information to be shared with other Web sites."
  • 2010/June: Also, in a possible method to cash in on all of this, Adam Jensen from the Tahoe Daily Tribune notes: "A South Lake Tahoe man has sued Facebook, claiming the social networking website violated its privacy policy by divulging personal information to advertisers."
