No. That was him mocking his users in private, knowing he was exploiting kids who had no clue what they were getting into.

> Zuck: Just ask.

> Zuck: I have over 4,000 emails, pictures, addresses, SNS

> [Redacted Friend's Name]: What? How'd you manage that one?

Do you really see this as him sharing insight? I call bullshit.

It has nothing to do with exploiting them. It was about them turning over personal information to a nobody.

It can be insightful and curt at the same time.

If you don't see that as exploitation, then we have much bigger issues to discuss. Like baseline ethics.
