I watched a lot of the hearings. I thought Mark Z did a real good job hiding his disdain for congresscritters who are so stupid that they didn't even know when they'd heard an answer to a question.

One thing was so bad (in an end-of-the-US-as-we-knew-it way) that it was funny: Blacks complained about the low number of black FB employees and none on the Board of Trustees. But they didn't have one word of support for Diamond and Silk. Conservatives complained about Diamond and Silk being disallowed access of FB because they're dangerous, but not about the lack of diversity in FB employees.

But NOBODY complained about the use and mostly abuse of H1B Visas by FB. One can only conclude that there's no one in the DC swamp that cares about US citizens being replaced with cheaper labor, as long as it's someone they don't agree with.

After that hearing, I pray that DC doesn't get involved in regulating these sites. I trust MarkZ more than I trust the DC Swamp.

Well most of those Congresscriters have no idea how something like Facebook works or how people even have access. It’s something that just “happens” to them. They particularly the GOP ones were a very poorly prepared bunch! As usual the GOP never fail to miss an opportunity to score some positive PR points. All GOP critters did was confirm in the mind of millennials their clueless old farts! Cruz did well but the others did so poorly that Cruz’s performance was enhanced by their bad performance!

Bad decision.

Rumor is Mark did not write the code for fake book one weekend in his Harvard dorm room. He got it from the CIA.

That is a correct conclusion. Rats and GOPe care nothing for middle class citizens.
