14 years of Mark Zuckerberg saying sorry, not sorry
By Geoffrey A. Fowler and Chiqui Esteban | April 9, 2018
Do you trust Mark Zuckerberg?
From the moment the Facebook founder entered the public eye in 2003 for creating a Harvard student hot-or-not rating site, hes been apologizing. So we collected this abbreviated history of his public mea culpas.
It reads like a record on repeat. Zuckerberg, who made move fast and break things his slogan, says sorry for being naive, and then promises solutions such as privacy controls, transparency and better policy enforcement.

Of course with the credit-rating bureaus, you have to give up even some more information before you can get your "free" report.
Just like facefook the data is out there in the wild and can't be brought back in. Even if facefook were to close its doors today the lasting effect of thousands of personal data points being strewn in millions of copies around the world should make us all very nervous.
