FB

Facebook is world wide though. Don't make the mistake of thinking that American millennials are representative of how 100s of millions of other millennials around the world feel about facebook.

I don't, but they often lead the way in trends....seems to me the excitement of fb is long gone in America and so the world markets would follow.
 
Zuckerberg Op-Ed

Mark Zuckerberg wrote an op-ed for the Wall Street Journal, railing against those who criticize Facebook over its data-slurping ways. His argument in a nutshell: users can control whether the data is used for ad-targeting, but Facebook won't stop collecting the data and it won't "let them control how we use it for security or operating our services."

Facebook Results

Facebook Bonuses

Facebook will link employee bonuses in part to "making progress on the major social issues," rather than just growth, it said. Those social issues include privacy and the spread of misinformation, as well as "building new experiences that… improve people's lives." What are the metrics for all this? That's not clear.
