Facebook was started by a college kid who made a site for non-consensually rating the faces of his fellow female classmates. He called his initial users "dumb f*cks" for trusting him with their private information. Information, which he offered to share with his friend, also without consent. It was obvious from the start that Facebook was up to no good, but money and power [1] prevailed.
