What Is Zuckerberg Hiding?
He knows everything about us, yet we know nothing about him.
Has it ever crossed your mind regarding how much do we know about Mark Zuckerberg’s transperency? If Zuckerberg’s name is mentioned, things like Meta comes to mind, or the world’s richest men or his baby blue shirt matched with his beige shorts and his flip flops. Other than that, as loyal users of Meta, we have no clue whatsoever.
How are users able to trust a platform when we barely know anything about its creator? Dr. Michael Zimmer, a privacy expert and university professor has been on a mission to be able to answer that question on behalf of the users, which equates to about the whole world. Zimmer has recorded “every single thing” regarding what Zuckerberg has out in the public. Zimmer has these recordings in an archive that holds the title of “The Zuckerberg Files”.
The Zuckerberg Files include more than 1,500 transcripts of Zuckerberg which cover his remarks, posts, videos, and public media appearances. Concerns about Facebook users’ privacy and the use of their data are becoming more and more pressing, according to Dr. Zimmer, who felt compelled to “closer look” at Zuckerberg’s transparency words and opinions.
“The privacy concerns around Facebook, and the amount of data Meta collects across its platforms, are real and important for users to understand,” Dr. Zimmer mentioned to Sky News.
“I don’t rush to suggest people delete their accounts, as there can be real benefits being on the platforms. But it’s important for users to explore the privacy settings available to understand how visible their content is, what kind of details are being collected and shared, and so on. Facebook has got better at giving users the ability to manage their privacy, but they could certainly do more.”
According to Dr. Zimmer, Zuckerberg appears to be concerned about privacy based on posts made on his Facebook page.
What is Zuckerberg hiding? Why does he have the power to collect our data in various ways with new features on different Meta platforms, yet we know nothing about him, zilch! This is the difference between Zuckerberg and Elon Musk. Musk is always in the front row when it comes to accusations regarding anything that he owns for example, the latest case of sexual assault that took place in SpaceX.
This gives us a clue about Zuckerberg’s transparency goals and Musk’s goals, one of them is on a mission to collect data for a bigger cause than entertaining us and the other is as chaotic as his X!
