#12Even if it's true, stating it in an interview like this just comes off as trying to sound cool.

#13Earlier quoted context omitted.
How is that quote unfortunate?
After making a gesture to prove that he's a nice charitable guy who's interested in seeing Diaspora succeed, he likens it to a project deemed illegal by the CEO of his company.

#14Reading his responses, he doesn't come off as the money-hungry psychopath that he was claimed to be. Either he knows how to hide his agenda very well, or, well, he's just your usual young founder.
Anyone like Gates, Jobs, Zuckerberg, Ellison, etc. are in it for the power, megalomania, and manifest destiny -- not for the money.

No majorly successful founder-CEO is "in it for the money." If he wanted to just buy Lamborghinis and penthouses, he would have sold the company for $1 billion several years ago. Anyone like Gates, Jobs, Zuckerberg, Ellison, etc. are in it for the power, megalomania, and manifest destiny -- not for the money.

#20Zuckerberg is very competitive. I'm sure he wants the competition to step up and give him a run for his money.
