An inteesting article, certainly, but it buries a rather explosive accusation:

    Zuckerberg had reason to take the meeting (with 
    Rupert Murdoch) especially seriously, according 
    to a former Facebook executive, because he had 
    firsthand knowledge of Murdoch’s skill in the 
    dark arts. Back in 2007, Facebook had come under 
    criticism from 49 state attorneys general for 
    failing to protect young Facebook users from 
    sexual predators and inappropriate content. 
    Concerned parents had written to Connecticut 
    attorney general Richard Blumenthal, who opened 
    an investigation, and to The New York Times, 
    which published a story. But according to a 
    former Facebook executive in a position to 
    know, the company believed that many of the 
    Facebook accounts and the predatory behavior 
    the letters referenced were fakes, traceable 
    to News Corp lawyers or others working for  
    Murdoch, who owned Facebook’s biggest competitor,
    MySpace. “We traced the creation of the Facebook 
    accounts to IP addresses at the Apple store a 
    block away from the MySpace offices in Santa 
    Monica,” the executive says. “Facebook then traced 
    interactions with those accounts to News Corp lawyers. 
    When it comes to Facebook, Murdoch has been playing 
    every angle he can for a long time.” (Both News Corp and 
    its spinoff 21st Century Fox declined to comment.)

Does anyone have any good pointers for further reading on this? If I were Mark Zuckerberg and some fossilized ink-stained wretch like Murdoch tried to weaponize a state attorney general against my company, there would be very serious consequences.
