He's done very well throughout IMO. I think the old politicians are impressed with learning about how tech works... like when their grandchild sets the clock on the microwave.

This dog and pony show is a complete waste of time and taxpayer resources.

These hearings aren't for us to learn anything.

These hearings are political theater where politicians can get in as many one-liner gotchas as possible.

This is the first time I've heard Zuckerburg actually speak. Wow, that dude sounds like a helluva dork.

I'd be alright if Facebook banned all things political. Then all these idiots who spew nothing but political reposts and liked would be reminded that their opinion in fact, does not matter as much as they think it does.

It's really funny watching Dems freak out their narrative blaming Facebook for Hillary losing is unraveling

Problem is you can't do that effectively...there would be lawsuit after lawsuit.

the only way to legitimately do that is to not allow any ads and make Facebook a pay to play service.

or at least give you the option to pay and get rid of ads which is probably where we are heading.

I think he comes across well. I never bought this idea that he was on the austism spectrum. Stock reacting well.

BTW, there are not 2 Billion global users. People think 2 billion persons use it. It’s not even available in China. Every small business, PTA group, movement, etc... must count as a user.

When your massive company starts discriminatory and censorship practices, you get an invite to a congressional hearing and the threat of regulation.

From there it's just a dog and pony show featuring an endless line of assholes hopping onto a soap box making statements instead of asking questions.

Of course it does. How can even pretend not to know this?
