I think the issue by now has shifted from whether Facebook is a sleazy profit-maximizing company to what, if anything, regulatory institutions like the FTC are worth.
It's time we turned our attention to them and evaluated to which extent they are willing and able to protect consumers and penalize corporations beyond the scope of PR and wrist-slapping.
We are talking five months, until Facebook IPOs, and the people with vested interests in the company cash in. That's the deadline to make a change.
Is it just me, or does anybody else trust Facebook more than they trust the US Congress?
Personally I think these congressmen should sit down, shut up and find something harmless to do with their time... and quit worrying the rest of us normal people.
