I would blame the masses, just like Religion. :-
"The unwitting participants in the Facebook study were told (seemingly by their friends) for a week either that the world was a dark and cheerless place or that it was a saccharine paradise," says University of Maryland law professor James Grimmelmann in a blog post. "That's psychological manipulation, even when it's carried out automatically."
Study finds, "Emotional states can be transferred to others via emotional contagion, leading people to experience the same emotions without their awareness."
Begs the question why are they studying us? I believe it has the potential to be evil in the form of mass brain-washing.

The "like" button is also a psychological experiment. I get more enjoyment from flushing the toilet, then clicking the like button.

The same goes for FaceBook, I have never been on FaceBook, nor do I plan to. See how simple that is?
and I would add that Facebook is a stalkers paradise.
FB is 100% voluntary.
Even though there's very little substance behind their utterly grand scale of exaggerated claims, feel good sermons, and largely false promises. Transferring of strong emotional States is exactly what majority of religions do, even when that emotional response is pretty much oblivious to the real world around them... They do this without a shred of evidence... which is rather amazing all in and of itself. Gotta love how ppl are so gullible. Just like our donkey worshipping friend who mates with donkeys lol
is it fair that Zuckerberg's wife is into beastiality?
I would blame the masses, just like Religion. :-
Would blaming the masses be fair? What if face book ads didn't sell?
The more I think about it, blaming the masses isn't fair.
I blame it on Zuckerberg's gf pet dog. That seems more fair
That Zuckerberg did nothing more than create a medium that feeds on the human sophomoric need for peer approval and vanity(He did create it while in college; did he not?).
I find it rude and intrusive/invasive how many other 'sites' offer "signing in" via your facebook account. It uses the innate human weakness of wanting to be noticed and accepted as a way of data-basing your entire life and that of your friends. On the surface it is warm, friendly and nice like Mr Rogers Neighborhood; but there is a very invasive underbelly that can and will be used quite insidiously against millions when time comes.
I picked up a dangerous emotional vampire. She was my best friend all through school. We lost contact as an adult, well actually the last time I had seen her as a young adult, I had left her ass at the beach for being a bitch after mooching off me.
I thought things would be different and in a different time, but this lady grown up, literally sucks and feeds off my energy. I feel slimed, exhausted, manipulated after listening to all her drama and hate. I finally had to completely severe the relationship, block her from my facebook, quit answering her calls. No explanation given, I AM NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR ANYONE ELSE'S HAPPINESS!
I really feel sorry for single people dating, because if you ever run in to this beautiful lady, that loves sex and a squirter. She will make your life a living hell, she will rip your whole family apart and relish in everyone arguing. I am happy for myself that I saw through all her gossiping, that I never let her know not one weakness of mine to be later used against me.
Be careful on Facebook, I about never ridded of her calling and harrassing before she moved on to someone else.
