A cheeky hacker got a hold of the
Mark Zuckerberg fan page on Facebook and decided it was time to poke a little fun at Zuck and his cash-saturated social network. The sneaky critic
posted a message that appeared to come directly from the CEO on the page.
Let the hacking begin: If facebook needs money, instead of going to the banks, why doesn't Facebook let its users invest in Facebook in a social way? Why not transform Facebook into a 'social business' the way Nobel Price winner Muhammad Yunus described it? http://bit.ly/fs6rT3 What do you think? #hackercup2011
For those unaware a "
social business" strives not to make money for its investors, but to achieve goals such as healthcare for the poor or sheltering the homeless with any profits made. Now we're not saying that Zuck doesn't have a philanthropic bone in his body, just that perhaps his primary investors (which include Goldman Sachs and Russian oligarch Alisher Usmanov) might expect a return on their investment beyond the warm and fuzzy feeling one gets for doing the right thing. On the plus side, maybe now Mark Zuckerberg will take the privacy and security concerns of users seriously.

because facebook's public interfacing is entirely insufficient to qualify as customer service, if mark zuckerberg were a normal facebook user, he'd have no one to email to say his account was hacked who would respond in a reasonable timeframe and then help him address the issue sufficiently. instead, he'd be f*cked like the other 500,000,000 people that use his website.

From the headline I thought his personal profile had been hacked.

I wouldn't invest a dime. Let's hope in this case, there isn't a zucker born every minute.

I didn't hack it... but came up with the same idea, use my service which is essentially the same, networking, only I "pay the people that use it" objective is why should people give their information away for nothing? he's getting rich, wallstreets getting rich, you're getting nothing, Cable, iphones, TV, cell phones, banking, medical, personal and business loans, start up capital, where you buy your food, to proper legal representation.. it's all headed in my direction... people are tried of government squabbling and they are tried of wall street making fat profits and they're getting nothing out of it! reality they're tired of paying for it?
