By 'selling that click data about me' you realize that the only monetization tool Facebook has is a anonymized and aggregated ads tool...it doesn't sell click data.
Re:All these Brilliant People at Facebook Make Me Sad on Sunday June 12, 2011 @01:56PM (#2646959)
I disagree with the notion that "those who want it [Facebook] already have it..."

In fact, there are billions of users that don't have access to Facebook but would benefit greatly from it. Many of these potential users have 1/2G mobile phones, with little or no access to a PC. Much of what Facebook needs to do to achieve growth targets will be extending it's platform to these users by creating a consumable experience on such technically limited devices. That takes innovation.

There are laws that restrict her from lobbying current FCC employees and even staffers in and around the regulatory body. However, these cross-overs are still too common, meaning the restrictions in place probably aren't strong enough.
Re:I built this 'HN inspired' site. What do you think? on Saturday February 12, 2011 @09:39AM (#2210055)
seems a bit garbled. also, the site renders awkwardly on an iPad. while I see the connection with HN - barely - you've got a ways to go. keep at it though!
