I believe that Mark Zuckerberg is a very intereting character. He is the worlds youngest billionaire, created a website used by almost everyone, and is still practically fresh out of college. Even though this makes him sound very intelligent, I cant help but feel that facebook's popularity was just luck for him. His website is very slow, and ive seen people get angry with changes made to it very often. He just seems very interesting to me.
Mark seems to have alot of controversy surrounding him. Right off the bat, he has a lawsuit with 3 other people from his college against him over facebook. It seems strange that he would so quickly have a lawsuit over facebook. Also, he even has a movie about these lawsuits already out about him, which has many elements that are obviously added just for a better story. The most shocking thing about him to me is his comment about not believing in privacy, in response to people's anger about him giving less control to people over their own information. The reason why this comment shocks me so much is because when facebook was first being heard of, the only description ive ever heard about it was taht it was "like myspace, but with more privacy", which clearly shows that he doesnt even understand why his website became popular in the first place. I find Mark an interesting character, and im weary about thinking of him too highly.
