Speaking at a Q&A session in California, he said it was one of the most requested features the social network receives from its users.

He said the site would need to find a way to make sure it did not become a way to demean people's posts.

Geesh ... what's so tough about typing "dislike" or even "BS" to reply to a post and hitting enter? Or copy and paste 👎

I'm glad that's all Zuckerberg has to worry about.

I dislike Zuckerberg.


Likewise. I didn’t care either way until he went political. He can rot.

Facebook is populated by emotional, low-information morons.

So good luck with that.
