Apparently we shouldn't mention this here because he said it when he was young and likely to say reprehensible things.

But, has he ever apologized?

I am discontent to watch the world lay power at his feet, and proud of Indians for standing up to him.

This is what he said.

And young is when you are in your early teens, I think he was a junior in college when this happened and his frontal cortex should have been fully developed by then.

More important than an apology would be a statement that it is no longer true (if that is, in fact, the case).

Anyone have a link to such a statement?

Although it may give some positive press - the reality is that he was a young adult when he said it and he simply can't take it back. We don't need to pretend he's some kind of saint. This fake modesty is seriously nonsense. Zuck is a competitor and a winner and does what is necessary. That's it.

Competing and winning has no dependency on harvesting user data and giving it away to his friends for their own personal use.

I'm quite sure I addressed that in 3/4 sentences in my post. He is no saint.
