Kinda of scary that people are collecting X founder's profile. Although these data are publicly available, this is still kind of scary.
That's scary? You should see what Facebook has been up to the last 7-8 years: http://pleasedeletefacebook.com/

#42My mind immediately flashed back to "Being John Malkovich."

I'd bet the same kind of scene would work really well with "Zuckerberg."

#43Looking forward to the torrent. Tragic that this is what we are reduced to as a society.

Yeah, it sure is tragic that there are technologies that exist that allow us to bypass things like this.

#45While they don't ask upfront for money, they make a commendable effort of actually keeping people away from those files by asking people to email them with a stated research goal. Casually interested normal folks need not apply. It doesn't help either that their text files are in PDF instead of a format that can actually be programmatically processed.
Not exactly trivial, but text can be extracted from a pdf.

#47"The dominance of social networking sites, such as Facebook, in contemporary life" ... I find it funny when people make such dramatic statements about facebook. I've reduced my usage to once per week and feel no dominance. I can just as easily log off completely.
The real question is, can you delete it completely? :)

#48"The Zuckerberg Files is an open-access public archive" ... "Scholars wishing to gain access to the full archive should email access@zuckerbergfiles.org with their name, affiliation, and a brief description of the research project or purpose for which the materials will be put." Open-ish.
At least, they are not asking for a yearly membership fee.

#49Where is Obama files? In fact this seems like a good idea for a huge website for all high level political figures.
Well, nearly every public speech from members of Congress and the executive office and the judicial branch is recorded, with some notable exceptions like national security, but even then, eventually that information enters the public record by law. The problem is that much of it is difficult to collate. http://thomas.loc.gov/home/thomas.php is a good start for the Congressional record online, but presidential records…
RapGenius for politics!
