Agreed, Facebook is just exploiting weaknesses that already exist in American minds. Those problems exist elsewhere, but have not advanced as far.

There will be a silver lining in the Facebook case though. We're going to see a lot of emails and depositions that end the "Mark Zuckerberg is a uniquely competent person who earned an empire through ability" myth. That's good enough for me.

Thank you for saying that. The deposition will definitely be illuminating. Unlike his performance in front of congress, it will not be judged by public opinion ( and technically inept congressmen ) and will have real consequences should he chose to lie.
