>Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg has begun a two-day congressional inquisition declaring his company is facing an "arms race" with Russia as foreign actors seek to interfere in elections.
Try as much as you like, you will not divert attention away from the fact that you represent everything that is WRONG with the net
Yeah well, the sad fact is his shitty corp aint going anywhere. These proceedings are just for show. Nothing more.
Lincoln Gomez
The USA does 100 times as much interfering in others' elections as Russia or anyone else does or have ever done. Yet, they are the "good guys"
Nolan Green
Play the Russophobe card Mark. Do it for (((us)))...
Leo Bailey
>He sees factions in geopolitics in the context of good and evil I bet you think the Romans were the good guys of their story too.
Samuel Adams
Isnt it bed time in Tel Aviv?
Ethan Ortiz
Based Marky Zuck Let's kill all the vlads
Benjamin Long
The US are the bad guys. This is now obvious
Blake Stewart
These things are pretty pointless, just a show to make it seem like Congress cares, zuck gets grilled for a couple days and then does nothing and nothing changes.
Weren't the British also the bad guys during the 19th century for doing exactly what the US is doing but more blatantly? Or the Germans, Dutch, Spanish or literally any country that has come into international power at any time?
Dylan Clark
I never knew we were such a super hacking power, everyone is afraid of us and sees us basically everywhere now
Xavier Sanchez
What do all of those countries have in common, I wonder?
Isaac Morales
>w-w-we're not as bad as the nazis The modern American moral standard.
Michael Martin
Zuckerberg reminds me of a young Marshall Applewhite. Pretty funny calling it an arms race when they are literally using your own platform. The internet was a mistake.
>moral standards >in Politics I'm not implying they're the good guys, I'm saying that you're just bitching that your country is owned by them even though yours would do the exact same thing if in the same position. Vae victis as it were.
Zachary Scott
Don't hate the player hate the game. If Russia was in our position they would definitely be bigger assholes than we ever would be. Seriously I don't understand why people on the internet have to treat the privileged position we have in the world as some great injustice but if their quality of living dropped to second world tier they would start beheading politicians.
Michael Foster
>Try as much as you like, you will not divert attention away from the fact that you represent everything that is WRONG with the net
>Hello, I am a loony that thinks zuckerberg reads this shit
Zuckerberg is more powerful than some heads of state.
Jacob Gray
It eludes you that not every culture is interested in projecting global military hegemony no matter how much blood is spilled. Though you're welcome to keep believing that the US is simply a helpless victim of destiny that can't help but go around bombing people.
Chase Flores
How the fuck is this shit okay?
Oliver Jenkins
Can you enlighten me on said countries and cultures that have never made incursions to other nations or threatened their sovereignty through subversion? Where are they? Can you name one?
Jaxson Sullivan
>invading their neighbors == invading and interfering with multiple countries on the other side of the world >it is normal for countries to keep 2 major wars per decade and 30.000 bombs per year The lack of US perspective is amazing. Next you will start comparing the Emu War with WW2.
Jose Parker
It's a free market man, that's just how the system works. If you want justice, get a job and pay for it like the rest of us.
Parker Parker
> facing an "arms race" He will got money from republicans. >with Russia And from democrat too. Maybe we can get someone talking to congress we are meme races against 2ch hk/tech? Let me do my stupid joke, dirty hiro.
Jason James
What's the difference between a donation and a bribe?
Chase Phillips
I deleted my Facebook immediately after college, in 2008, and lost touch with everyone also
I have a job you mong. Bribes in the form of "donations" are not okay
Nolan Foster
Guess of 89% he has been on Jow Forums longer than you, that have already posted. Anonymous is more popular than Facebook's CEO,, he is declaring out in the open, Russia's government is set against the U.S. in a criminal fashion, "arms race". And stated it that way, because of the dangers of mobile apps and idiots.
Mason Gomez
oh well. People aren't important
Nathaniel Nelson
Dumb frogposter.
Henry Brown
>the arrogance of the average American
Look at it. Look at it and laugh!
Colton Reed
I dont know. But:
>Several other members of Congress own Facebook as well - however one Senator, Rep. John Yarmuth (D-KY) wants nothing to do with Facebook, and has announced that he will be selling his shares.
>Hello, I am a loony Yes you are. Thanks for your input, however
Gavin Powell
one is illegal
Bentley Hughes
>invading their neighbors == invading and interfering with multiple countries on the other side of the world Is it really, most countries have done it at some point, even Australia's inception came from the invasion of a nation on the otherside of the world and displacing it's natives. I don't mind that you wear your jealousy on your sleeve that your country has done nothing of worth when compared to a nation a fraction of it's age, but don't pretend you come from a nation of saints that would never do anything wrong to anyone.
Elijah Martin
Christ, you couldnt make this shit up
Dominic Edwards
Very nice. And yeah, it's sickening
Christopher Ward
I watched the entire hearing.
This quote is out of context, he was talking about being in an 'arma race' with people looking to exploit the system using bots/scraping, Russia as an example but moreso just in general online.
God the media is the worst.
Jeremiah Phillips
>b-but the British Empire did it too! And now we're back to the "at least we're not nazis" defense, with a dose of "you hate us for our freedoms". Oh well, at least you never pretended you were morally righteous.
Carter Harris
>two major wars per decade Name a major war the US has fought in the last 2 decades. Less than 100k US soldiers dead and it's not major. Less than 10k and it's not really a war.
Evan Richardson
When did I pretend the US is morally righteous. Drop this pathetically childish view of nations doing things due to morality. They commit to wars at the best of times due to ideology and most of the time to stake claims to resources. Do you think the British fought the Germans in world war 1 or 2 because they thought they were the bad guys? No, they did it because Germany threatened their hegemony. Literally every nation has gone to war at some time and it has been either to defend themselves or most likely to take resources from another, there was no "good and evil", there was "Either my people get this resource or yours".
Justin Collins
Nothing in politics
Nolan Reed
LOL, muppet
Colton Stewart
Investigate pajeet mobile apps on Google allowing it, that would be much better. With actual programmers pre writing the questions. A massive sht fk at Google Play services, massive underground ad fks, no purpose bot nets that could turn into something of unknown digital origins soon.
Zachary Edwards
Zuckerberg sat on a booster seat in congress today.
Holy shit mobile posting trash. illegaly sell our data***
Anthony Turner
how do you think they target the ads toward you dummy?
Christopher Lopez
This is all for show. Nothing will come of it.
Jason Jones
Black box targeting.
Store data and compare it to data advertisers want to compare it too. The advertisers don't see your data, only an algorithm local to that company and the database your information is on
Blake Mitchell
Why bother with that? It's not like there is anyone near him to give people frame of reference on how tall he is or isnt
Christopher Cruz
Fuck off socialist
Angel Gomez
bribe has fewer letters
Leo Foster
-RUSSIA WILL BE EXTERMINATED- -NO ONE MUST BE IN THE PATH-
Henry Flores
In politics, under capitalism, a donation is a bribe. You do not donate unless you want something in return. If you do not get it, then you stop donating. inb4 'socialist' - I am far from it.
Joshua Watson
maybe there will be a price to pay. I doubt it though
>implying russia does shit only with US >implying they dont do it anywhere else Bruh, russia is the inventor of fucking with people. This is the first time they decided to poke the bear (US) and woke it up. Take a look at eastern europe for evidence.
Jaxson Martinez
>hehe if i say "inb4" they can't call me out on being a disguising commie gb2 red edit
Thomas Taylor
Camera? or they just told him that to pull his leg
You are completely and utterly retarded with absolutely no knowledge of history or politics or even the simplest understanding of what your chubby Amerilard fingers just typed out. Kindly fucking kill yourself
Gavin Powell
Can you imagine being THIS much of brainwashed kike-enslaved cuck?
Brandon Hughes
>Can you imagine being THIS much of brainwashed kike-enslaved cuck? Nope, imagining such insane bullshit is beyond any decent person
I am russian and not quite understand what's going on
Chase Cook
Nothing will ever change for the good. The general public are too heavily sedated Facebook allowed itself to spam shite that apparently influenced the outcome of the US Presidential election. Murritards reckon it was the evil Russians
journalists are some irresponsible fucks. zuckerberg said that in the context of a congressional hearing, after lying and omitting information many times to those old, retarded senators. it was OBVIOUS that deflecting the conversation to "russian hackers and trolls" was very convenient for him to gain some points in the conversation. then these fucking journalists publish a title like that, taking his words to a different context and giving them more weight than what they had in the actual dicussion.
