Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg is reportedly losing support amongst his peers in Silicon Valley following Facebook’s latest user data scandal. Bloomberg reports that Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg has been left with few defenders in Silicon Valley following his company’s latest user data scandal. Amongst Zuckerberg’s biggest critics in the tech industry is Apple CEO Tim Cook, Tesla’s Elon Musk and Salesforce.com’s Marc Benioff, while many other Silicon Valley firms have fallen silent in the wake of the Facebook user data scandal, a stark contrast to how tech firms usually react when one of their own is attacked.
When other major tech brands have been questioned by the government — which Mark Zuckerberg very likely will be as he has been called to testify before Congress twice — Silicon Valley companies have rallied behind those attacked, such as when Apple fought with the FBI to protect the unlocking of an encrypted iPhone belonging to the San Bernardino terrorist. Gennie Gebhart, a researcher at the Electronic Frontier Foundation, stated “Protecting privacy is good for business now. Users are looking for other big tech personalities like Tim Cook, like Elon Musk, to be reassured that they’re not doing what Facebook did.”
Cook has particularly taken issue with Facebook following their most recent scandal stating that he “wouldn’t be in this situation” if he were Zuckerberg. Zuckerberg gave a lengthy response to Cook saying “I find that argument — that if you’re not paying, that somehow we can’t care about you — to be extremely glib and not at all aligned with the truth.”

If they break up FB he'll have more. Rockefeller's fortune doubled after Standard Oil was broken up.
...ergo Cigarettes cause Facebook....
I blame smokers. And global warming.
“Why is Google getting off the hook?”
Dunno that, but I do know that Google was essentially a member of the Obama administration.
Just wait till the class action suits start. Zuky is on the hook since he is the ceo.
Looks like Zuckerberg turned out to be just another con man.
Cigarettes? Nah, Fail-Book is, and has always been, the online equivalent to low-grade cocaine that’s been stepped on a few too many times.
Yes, the spy machines in people’s homes amazes me....they do it willingly! Even have conservative friends who have one, but they also have another place where there is no “spy”...so they are AWARE of its issues.
I wouldn’t let one in my house at all. Alexa doesn’t just see you, it hears everything you say.
If you have a computer or a cell phone in your home, you have a spy machine. Don’t be too smug.
boom
Well...that depends
And... no honor among thieves...
I cannot help but wonder where their *non*-showing-in-the-picture hands are...
Zuck the F*ck was crucial to Obama’s Arab Spring in which thousands of innocents have died to advance the cause of Muslim radicalism in Libya, Egypt and Syria.
The fact that the Zuck is being discovered as the new age Joseph Goebbels looks good on him. He has so much blood on his hands he should be revealed as one of the most nefarious war criminals on the face of the planet since WWII.
Give Zuck the F*ck to the people of Tripoli, which now lies in ruins thanks to the Zuck and the magic negro.They will know what to do with him.
