Can you believe that Zuckerberg's sister just didn't realize that anything you "share" may end up being shared again and again...?

or

Can you believe that, like the series of Apple prototypes "mistakenly" left in public places, Facebook thought that this intentional public relations ploy would gain it lots of attention and press...and it would be the positive kind?

From my perspective, they lose either way.

Yes, Randi Zuckerberg, Please Lecture Us About 'Human Decency'

Ah, yes. Rules of netiquette! Of all the people to lecture anyone in this manner! :D

- Positions of those in the Photo
- Similar facial expressions
- Can see everyone's face clearly
- Stuff on the counter does not seem 'right'
- All in the room, know or should know what they are doing and did
- Keeping the "buzz" going on this "mistake" by bringing in new buzzwords, such as human decency this morning. It was not used in last evening's articles.

Any publicity for a new product is good publicity.

I call "Bull" on the whole thing. It is a non-story and should just die.

Edit: Looked at all my friend's Christmas Pictures that have been posted so far and none come even close to the professional quality of the one in question.

Ian posted : I'm having a hard time believing that someone could really be that stupid. I suspect it's more to hype the new Facebook "poke" app with publicity. Anyone really believe the Zuckerburg family was shot all "candidly" slack-jawed with amazement over the new thing? Maybe I'm too cynical.

But assuming she is that stupid, her brother should sit her down and explain to her about the Internet and social networking sites.

Oh the humanity! I think it's about time to get Human Rights Watch involved, and possibly several UN agencies... or Randi could just throw a bowl of pasta at her brother standing over in the corner.

Zuckerberg's sister tripped up by Facebook policy

goalieskates posted : Dustup over image of Mark Zuckerberg's sister, Randi Zuckerberg, on Facebook (CBS)

quote:
Even Mark Zuckerberg's family can get tripped up by Facebook's privacy settings.

A picture that Zuckerberg's sister posted on her personal Facebook profile was seen by a marketing director, who then posted the picture to Twitter and her more than 40,000 followers Wednesday.

That didn't sit well with Zuckerberg's sister, Randi, who tweeted at Callie Schweitzer that the picture was meant for friends only and that posting the private picture on Twitter was "way uncool." Schweitzer replied by saying the picture popped up on her Facebook news feed.

The picture shows four people standing around a kitchen staring at their phones with their mouths open while Mark Zuckerberg is in the background.

Randi Zuckerberg, who used to run Facebook's marketing department and now produces a reality television show, eventually said Schweitzer was able to see the picture because they had a mutual friend. Those tweets have since been taken down.

So was that a feature or a bug? Either way, there's some poetic justice here, and the ultimate message is, private isn't private. :D
