Facebook Was Shut Off in China Today

marco:

Ricky Van Veen:

They could have remained on if they had played by China’s rules and allowed the government to censor their content. But unlike Google and Yahoo and everybody else, Mark Zuckerberg refused to play by their rules and told them to go fuck themselves.

Hats off to you, Mark.

Wow. Facebook did something good. Nice job, Facebook.
