People who get on Putin's bad side have a history of ending up with things like polonium and nerve agents inside their bodies, even when living in western countries. Bombing facebook would likely be further than even Russia is willing to go, but I wouldn't put it past them to poison their head of PR or something.

I expect that if Russia poisoned Zuckerberg there would be a lot more backlash from the West than in the cases you linked. Maybe even outright war.

Otherwise, it would mean the entire world should permanently live in fear of Putin, and that sounds worse even than nuclear winter.

Nobody is going to war over zuckerburg or any of the tech ceos. Lets get real here.

Not the world. Just a few western countries. I don't think zambia or bolivia or india or china or much of the world is going to care one bit.

Very unlikely that poisoning Zuckerberg would lead to war. A warrant for the arrest of the person who poisoned him, certainly, but not war.
