Mark Zuckerberg - Facebook CEO Loses it When Questioned on Privacy

Earth to Mark Zuckerberg, YES you and your company need to reevaluate your current privacy options in Facebook.
It used to be that you could freely give access or restrict access to particular parts of your profiles. I, for one, liked
the ability to allow certain people to see some parts of my profile (say my friends) while others perhaps not. It's my profile
and hence it should be my prerogative but not if you ask the people at Facebook.

Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg's performance at the AllThingsDigital D8 conference Wednesday night will not be remembered as one of his finer moments. The 26-year-old social networking wunderkind delivered a tense, rambling, and utterly awkward performance during his featured interview, according to witnesses and press accounts.

Zuckerberg became flustered almost immediately after veteran tech reporters Walt Mossberg and Kara Swisher pressed him on Facebook's privacy issues. "There have been misperceptions that we're trying to make all information open," Zuckerberg said, according to coverage in The New York Times. "That's completely false."

The young CEO doggedly refused to answer straight questions, instead returning to hazy talking points, before losing it all together.
