This man is an actor hired by the CIA/Military/NSA to be 'Mr. Facebook' in public and has nothing to do with the internal workings of the data-gathering project that is Facebook/the internet.
Nathan Campbell
This man is a job creator.
This man is a value creator.
He drives technological progress forward.
He didn't do anything illegal. His users agreed to everything, it's in the ToS.
The ones persecuting him right now are the same corrupt, hypocritical bureaucrats who abuse the state apparatus to spy on you without your permission.
Now stop badmouthing him, you fucking useful idiot.
The thing is that the stuff that appears on their ToS should be illegal Just because I hypothetically downloaded facebook messenger (which I did not) and gave it permission to read my messages (I mean, it's a messaging app how would it work otherwise), it doesn't mean it can send that unencrypted data to Facebook so they can read all my messages, especially my received messages that the senders never agreed to share with Facebook Yes, all of this is in their ToS, but it should be illegal

He has created probably the largest and most sophisticated mass surveillance system in history.

Conservatives will mostly say he did nothing wrong and played by the rules of capitalism. Liberals will mostly say "lock him up" without trial... I don't think the irony is lost on anyone.
In reality, neither side nor "independents" want to take any responsibility, as usual. Nobody wants to create actual government regulation (oh no!) that would bother foster a healthy, competitive market for services like Facebook AND protect people's privacy, at heavy cost to such companies if violated.
(What do you think this is, after all - Europe? Nah, let's just have each side benefit themselves as much as they can, who cares about the common folk and their smaller businesses after all?)
jokes aside i reakly like zuck he seems like nice guy

Listen boy, he is only in deep shit right now because media does not like that people associate them with fake news as much as they do and media attacked him and his platform so that the goy can only listen and believe to the lies the media tells and not go to other platforms, where they MAY find a more unbiased view. In that sense (((he))) is not doing anything wrong right now. The Cambridge Analytica is a nothingburger in reality because on facebook there are many groups, both on the right and the left, that shitpost lies 24/7. CA was one of them, but not the only one. Anyway do not protect the faggot because he has created the environment where people post only where they are depressed, everything they do is recorded and also the plaque that is fb is spying on you on other webpages as well with the developer widgets and tracking pixels. He is a faggot that looks like a robbot and it is hard to protect him. However, on facebook you could at least see lies from both sides. Not like the media where lies are only left leaning

You can have national pride, or believe in supporting your nation before others while also being against having your property and speech rights infringed upon
Lucas Diaz
That little Jewgirl is a snotty, arrogant, conceited asshole billionaire.
not that dude, but there's a difference: You can give someone it without losing it that isn't true for real concrete things. That fact is what causes the need for property rights a person earns something, therefore they have a right to not have it taken out from under them if I draw mickey mouse disney loses nothing if I shared a copy of Photoshop's source adobe loses nothing
IP rights are a governmental privilege provided to creaters of media to reward them for their creations by making it so they can charge money for its access, whereas normally there would be no way to profit
whether that's good policy or not is another matter
Jaxon Torres
>You can give away IP without losing it Except that’s literally how you lose it and the ability to profit from it, you dumb shit. Why the fuck do you think patents and copyrights exist in the first place, if not to prevent someone stealing your idea.
Samuel Martinez
>You can give away IP without losing it Except that’s literally how you lose it and the ability to profit from it, you dumb shit. Why the fuck do you think patents and copyrights exist in the first place, if not to prevent someone stealing your idea.
Henry Harris
>if I shared a copy of Photoshop's source adobe loses nothing I’m pretty sure they lose potential revenue, and is more than valid reason to drag your ass to court and sue you.
Adrian Smith
it isn't

Many libertarians are against intellectual "property". Though of course they're generally shunned because even libertarians don't allow wrongthink these days.
Sebastian Lopez
It is you sick communist troll
Cooper Gray

Austin Morgan
nope, it isn't you corporate schlongsucker. I bet you support software patents as well
Ethan Cook
Only lefty libertarians are (because muh means of productions). Right libertarians, including objectivists and Rand-fags, clearly believe in IP.
Kevin Peterson
>your ability to profit from it all i'm saying is that that's not an inalienable right it's a created one >stealing your idea ? why would that matter if there were no IP rights Nice job only reading the first paragraph Also again, without ip rights there would be no potential revenue to lose
Benjamin Allen
Software patents are the reason I make money, so of course I do.
Jack Jones

The FSF is against the abolition of copyright, because without it they would not be able to enforce "freedom" and "openness".
The day I first learned about that was the day I started to outright hate that horrid organization. (Then I realized what the GPL really was...)
Alexander Hill
Absolutely retarded
Lucas Gomez
>money is happiness >sharong your ideas with people in a free manner isn't ? I'm not even against IP rights bit what the fuck kind of argument for them is that
Chase Harris
>t. Jealous neck beard
Jordan Long
You literally make money because of government enforcement and nothing else. You are far, far worse than the typical government worker, and even many politicians.
Benjamin Collins
You are free to share your ideas if you want, that’s protected by free speech. But you can’t steal information that isn’t yours, that’s not protected and is in fact a violation of my property rights.
Adam Gomez
shut up zucc
Aaron Johnson
Except if I came with the idea independently, not even knowing you had done so before, I still can't share it. And I am technically liable if I do without knowing!
John Stewart
>steal information steal implies you lost it, you didn't. You still have a copy of all that information that's all I'm saying man. There is no direct connection between regular property rights and IP rights
This also
Lucas Martin
This man is a meme creator.
This man is a shitposting creator.
He drives memetic progress forward.
He didn't do anything illegal. GNusers agreed to everything, it's in the GPL license.
The ones persecuting him right now are the same corrupt, hypocritical applefags who abuse the state apparatus to mock you for being poor without your permission.
Now stop badmouthing him, you fucking useful idiot.
If you don't understand why software patents are terrible for the tech industry, and why most of the large tech companies fight against them I highly doubt you have a job unless it involves flipping burgers
Adam White
If you can prove that you came to the same idea independently and without being influenced by the protected work, you actually are free to do that. This is how patent laws work today.
Jaxson Morris
>GNusers agreed to everything, it's in the GPL license. >implying they have a choice when 99% of useful "free" software forces the viral GPL on them
Ian Myers
I lost the ability to profit from it. You clearly stole that from me. Destroying someone’s livelihood is unethical and mostly illegal.
Carson Lopez
>t. microsoft shill
Isaac Thompson
IANAL and all that, but no they don't. Neither does copyright.
Oliver Martin
The ability to profit doesn't even exist in reality. It is completely made up and only in theory you had that ability to begin with.
Jose Brown
>ability to profit from it that didn't exist till the gov gave it to you
We're arguing in circles
Jackson Hernandez
All software license agreements should be strictly banned, period. EULAs included of course. You don't agree to a license for most other copyrighted media. You shouldn't for software.
I use this to make myself 200 to 300 extra dollars each day
Gavin Martin
They are terrible because they are badly dealt with and patent offices do not understand how software works, not because the idea of IP is bad in itself. No one here can name a single issue wrong with patents in themselves, they can only name cases where patents have been misinterpreted
David Ross
Your right to not be killed by me didn’t exist until the government imposed that restriction. That’s hardly an argument and you’re a faggot.
Camden James
Your right to not get killed should be imposed by yourself, unless your an unarmed retard who thinks the police will save him.
