What evidence do you have that his actions provide massive value? I grant that the actions of somebody at Facebook did, but I don't have particular reason to believe that he was the key factor. He was, after all, forced out early on, and hasn't done much interesting since.

This business of attacking Saverin personally is ridiculous. You do it, other people do it, and eventually it seems like the thing to do. Then when Congress starts to attack Saverin it seems normal. We have to go after those greedy rich bastards, don't we? But it's a very dangerous precedent. Do the words "bill of attainder" not mean anything to anyone here?
