In the documentary, Mr. Zuckerberg says, verbatim, that he will co-operate in order to comply with government requirements. But according to other former directors, he did not walk the talk.
Is the nature of the service provided by Facebook, if I compare it to a highway, simply that of a paved highway on which there is personal and commercial traffic, and advertising, and so on? There is free circulation on the highway, which the company has paved widely, so as to have as much traffic as possible.
Anyone who wants to watch the traffic on the highway can sit on the sidelines and watch it go by. The third party looks at what is going by on the platform, so that the very nature of Facebook's activities--in its eyes--frees it from any responsibility we would like to attribute to it.
I am trying to eliminate the arguments in its favour so that we may have all the necessary tools to consider even more coercive means than the ones we have at present.
