A judge in southern Iran has ordered Facebook founder and CEO Mark Zuckerberg to appear in court to answer complaints by individuals who say Facebook-owned applications Instagram and Whatsapp violate their privacy, semiofficial news agency ISNA reported Tuesday.
It quoted Ruhollah Momen Nasab, an official with the paramilitary Basij force, as saying that the judge also ordered the two apps blocked. It is highly unlikely that Zuckerberg would appear in an Iranian court since there is no extradition treaty between Iran and the United States. Some Iranian courts have in recent years issued similar rulings that could not be carried out.

Gasp, the only humans I respect less than this dork is the mulladorks in Islamran.
They belong together.
Wonder who gets to be the wife.
Yes, he should go. What could go wrong?
And take a few ‘popular’ show hosts with him.
For company in his cell.
Tell the Iranian Court to “Go Get Stump Broke!”
Good Lord...stop. We lost Apple Steve Jobs. We don’t need to lose anymore of our intellectuals. Steve Jobs and Mark Zuckerberg and maybe Bill Gates have made America the best of the best. The three of them have completely revitalized the World for goodness sake. Shame about Steve, but the others needs to stick around America for a long time.
The question should be "who's wife will he be?"
That is a stretch putting Zuckerberg in that list.
Probably so, but his computer expertise is pretty good. I mean I don’t agree with much of his politics (or maybe none at all) but to want a guy out of the country especially to a terrorist country is a bit much.
Yes, Zuckerberg should definite get his buttocks to Iran. The experience should be enlightening to him.
It’s the part right next to the “Like” button.
A Jew being tried in Iran? I’m sure the trial would be fair.
I second that. And I have a list of others I would like to send with him in support.
Fatwah! (Oh please, please...)
A very big stretch. If MySpace did a few things differently, we would not be talking about Zuckerberg.
Zuckerberg is just lucky. He is not a "genius" innovator.
The only thing Zuckerberg has in common with Gates and Jobs is rabid leftism.
“the paramilitary Basij force” ...the plain clothes force that beats and kills protestors.
I’m guessing they would want their pics up on Instagram, vandettas are a nasty thing. /sarc
