Uh huh. Sure, Facebook. And you call them "steamed hams" despite the fact that they are obviously grilled.

#22What exactly is the problem here? Why shouldn't the CEO of a company have special capabilities? He owns it after all. You'll be outraged to learn restaurant owners often make things for themselves that's not on the menu.
So your bank manager can dip into your account?
So you think someone removing something he posted is the same as someone taking money off someone?

#23Repost. Also, more dead horse beating?
The beatings will continue until morale improves.

Nope, that would violate the agreement made between you and your bank.

Your bank could put a line at the top of your statement that reads:
SPECIAL HAPPY NEW YEAR MESSAGE FROM FACEBANK $0.00
and then come February they realise they look pretty stupid so they take it out of the statement (web page). No one would care too much.

#26I mean come on, let's not be coy here: Mark Zuckerberg literally can access and manipulate any Facebook data he wants. That's kind of his entire MO.
If you said this about Jeff Bezos and data on AWS, you'd be wrong. That's a bit apples-to-oranges, but what I mean is being an executive in a company does not entail access to customer data retained by the company. I don't expect Facebook to be a good data steward, but they certainly could be. Not to AWS's extent (Facebook can't turn a profit without reading your unencrypted content, currently), but to a minimal exte…
Sure, but AWS makes money from being paid to host data securely. Facebook and other social networks make money by selling your data, so it inherently comes with an amount of transparency to function as a marketable product.

I agree completely.
