Re: Shocking: Facebook to Shut Down On March 15

Okay, okay.  I admit it.  I was duped.  I apologize for posting that bogus 
report.  But to be perfectly blunt, some people don't seem to have a life 
beyond Facebook.  Their whole world revolves around it.  Anyone who can't get 
through the day  without Facebook has a serious problem and probably needs 
help.  Once again, I'm sorry for creating such a ruckus.

  Don't think Zuckerberg even bothers responding to shit like this. Anyway a 
thing like this would be news of the year and you won't be able to watch a 
minut of tv with out hearing about it,  something as big won't be left to flowt 
around via email

  Based on the number of Facebook questions posted on this list, any major 
change to Facebook would certainly be relevant.  Again, if the report is false, 
so be it.  In any case, I haven't seen any denials from Zuckerberg, so who 
knows what's really going on?

    No, you don't report. You clutter and  spread misinformation that you don't 
bother to verify. This is absurd and a waste of time on every level.

     

    Even more importantly, what's this got to do with Jaws?

    I report, you decide.  That's all I can say.  Maybe it's true.  Maybe it's 
not.  We shall see.

      This has to be a fraud.  First, the site is owned by a corporation and 
Zuckerberg, as an individual, doesn't have that authority.  Second, it is 
unimaginable that a company with a market cap of $65 Billion would suddenly go 
poof because of the personality quirks of its CEO.  What about those investors? 
 Many of them are pension funds.

      The next thing we'll hear is that the Easter Bunny is boycotting 
chocolate eggs.

        I think you have  been had. If there had been a real press release like 
this, it would have been all over the news.

        At first I thought this was some kind of practical joke, but it sure 
sounds real.  Read it and weep:

         

        PALO ALTO, CA -Mark Zuckerberg announced that Facebook will be shut
        down in March.
        Managing the site has become too stressful.
        "Facebook has gotten out of control," said Zuckerberg in a press
        conference outside
        his Palo Alto office, "and the stress of managing this company has
        ruined my life.
        I need to put an end to all the madness."
        Zuckerberg went on to explain that starting March 15th, users will no
        longer be able
        to access their Facebook accounts.
        "After March 15th the whole website shuts down," said Avrat Humarthi,
        Vice President
        of Technical Affairs at Facebook. "So if you ever want to see your
        pictures again,
        I recommend you take them off the internet. You won't be able to get
        them back once
        Facebook goes out of business."
        Zuckerberg said that the decision to shut down Facebook was difficult,
        but that he
        does not think people will be upset.
        "I personally don't think it's a big deal," he said in a private phone
        interview.
        "And to be honest, I think it's for the better. Without Facebook,
        people will have
        to go outside and make real friends. That's always a good thing."
        Some Facebook users were furious upon hearing the shocking news.
        "What am I going to do without Facebook?" said Denise Bradshaw, a high
        school student
        from Indiana. "My life revolves around it. I'm on Facebook at least 10
        hours a day.
        Now what am I going to do with all that free time?"
        However, parents across the country have been experiencing a long
        anticipated sense
        of relief.
        "I'm glad the Facebook nightmare is over," said Jon Guttari, a single
        parent from
        Detroit. "Now my teenager's face won't be glued to a computer screen
        all day. Maybe
        I can even have a conversation with her."
        Those in the financial circuit are criticizing Zuckerberg for walking
        away from a
        multibillion dollar franchise. Facebook is currently ranked as one of
        the wealthiest
        businesses in the world, with economists estimating its value at
        around 7.9 billion.
        But Zuckerberg remains unruffled by these accusations. He says he will
        stand by his
        decision to give Facebook the axe.
        "I don't care about the money," said Zuckerberg. "I just want my old
        life back."
        The Facebook Corporation suggests that users remove all of their
        personal information
        from the website before March 15th. After that date, all photos,
        notes, links, and
        videos will be permanently erased.
