Facebook Thinks You're Stupid

Facebook quietly changed its terms of service agreement (TOS) recently. Bloggers freaked, triggering a public uproar that forced Facebook to revert back to the older version and come up with a better TOS agreement. All of this — the terms of service, the stealth editing thereof, the revocation and Zuzkerberg's explanation — demonstrates that Facebook suffers from a disease I like to call "People Is Stupid Syndrome." Facebook treats users like their puny pea brains can't handle either the basics of corporate legal protection or recognize when they're being talked down to or manipulated.
