I wonder exactly where everything kind of went south for Mark and his platform, or was this always the goal since Facebook's inception

It went south around this point:

    Zuck: Yeah so if you ever need info about anyone at Harvard
    Zuck: Just ask.
    Zuck: I have over 4,000 emails, pictures, addresses, SNS
    [Redacted Friend's Name]: What? How'd you manage that one?
    Zuck: People just submitted it.
    Zuck: I don't know why.
    Zuck: They "trust me"
    Zuck: Dumb fucks.

I don't know why anyone trusted anything that came out of Zuckerberg's mouth for the last 20 years.

Arguably, inception

The "Dumb fucks" story is rather well-known

Any reference to it used to get downvoted. HN commenters would argue he has since changed, that he's older and wiser

But I also recall reading about a conversation he had with a classmate who started a similar database of student information at Harvard. Like the Winklevoss twins, he thought Zuckerberg was copying his idea. I believe he went on to create a website of searchable case law. Was his name Greenspan, I can't remember

Anyway, the gist of what I remember is that in a conversation with Greenspan, Zuckerberg specifically cited federal court as the place where his dishonesty would hit a wall, or something like that

Many years and billions of dollars later, it seems like this may be coming true
