Most of us have known this for 5 years. It is a good redpill item though.

I don't know about any of that stuff, but I have zero doubt that the three letter agencies are balls deep in any big social type companies. They use them to gather information.

Who gives a frick if the “timelines are correct.” That shite is meaningless. Do y’all understand what the original Facebook was? It was a digital replacement for a book that just had people’s pics and names in it. That’s it.

That you do not see the push to get ahead of the eventual narrative by producing a Hollywood biopic that lays out the purported origins of Facebook is staggeringly on brand.
There's more historically accurate information in The Empire Strikes Back than in in any frame of The Social Network.

Whether is was or wasn't from the beginning is kind of a pointless debate since they sure as shite work hand in hand with our intel agencies now.

Ayy, people finally putting the pieces of the puzzle together. Nice.
Remember when the CIA used Twitter to foment the "Arab Spring".
And, it's been scrubbed from Wikipedia now, but the information that DARPA money is what funded Twitter's expansion and its founders being CIA used to be on there and adequately sourced.

Lawsuit Claim: Facebook Overpaid FTC Fine By Billions To Protect Zuckerberg.
Shareholders say the overpayment was an "express quid pro quo”
In a newly unsealed lawsuit, Facebook shareholders allege that the company intentionally overpaid a $5 billion Federal Trade Commission fine to protect CEO Mark Zuckerberg from further government scrutiny.
"Zuckerberg, Sandberg, and other Facebook directors agreed to authorize a multi-billion settlement with the FTC as an express quid pro quo to protect Zuckerberg from being named in the FTC's complaint, made subject to personal liability, or even required to sit for a deposition," the lawsuit says (emphasis in the original). An early draft of the order obtained by The Washington Post through the Freedom of Information Act shows that the commission was considering holding Zuckerberg responsible.
The FTC levied the fine in July 2019 in the wake of the Cambridge Analytica scandal, which saw political operatives harvesting the personal data of 50 million Facebook users without their consent. (The lawsuit says only 0.31 percent of the affected users consented.) The fine (which was a record for privacy-related penalties) was 50 times larger than the maximum prescribed by a previous FTC consent decree, the lawsuit alleges. It was also well in excess of the previous record fine of $168 million.
"Facebook's maximum monetary exposure was $104,751,390—about $4.9 billion less than it agreed to pay," shareholders said in the lawsuit. The overpayment, they said, is a breach of fiduciary duty.
Insider trading
The lawsuit also alleges that, by withholding information about the Cambridge Analytica leak, executives and board members, including Zuckerberg and COO Sheryl Sandberg, engaged in insider trading. "After Zuckerberg learned of Cambridge Analytica's massive extraction of Facebook user data, he and the entities controlled by him significantly accelerated his sales of Facebook shares," the lawsuit says….
