Rome – has reached the finish line of the half a million users for Instagram , the popular photo-sharing service, from 2012 owned by Facebook. To celebrate, Mark Zuckerberg has well thought to be taking a picture of him smiling and proud of the result, and publish it on his Facebook profile. “Thanks to all the members of our community for helping us reach this milestone!” It is written in the frame that holds up his hands and looks toward the lens sitting in his office chair. Apart from the confirmation of the fact that Zuckerberg, as he himself said with a video on Facebook, works in close contact with his collaborators, from photography there does not seem unremarkable. Yet some have noticed a disturbing detail.
Chris Olson, attentive user of Twitter, we have noticed Some of the details of Zuckerberg MacBook recognizing them in a tweet that in a short time has made the rounds of the network. the message is laconic: “Room covered with tape, Mic jack covered with tape, Email client is Thunderbird” (webcam covered with tape, microphone jack covered with adhesive tape, the Email client Thunderbird). For many it is an admission concealed about fear of violation of privacy: Zuckerberg wants to protect. And it does so with simple and amateur methods.
Nothing wrong with that, if it were not for the dissonance with the concept on which it is founded Facebook, which derives its income from personal data of its users and the content they produce, not least live video to Facebook Live and voice messages exchanged via Messenger. How would people feel reassured those who manage these services if you really feel the need to conceal themselves?
Zuckerberg’s attitude could be related to an issue of security in the strictest sense. Just recently it has been dealt a severe blow to Twitter, with the sale of sensitive user data, and the same fate has befallen Linkedin. Zuckerberg knows this, I saw that among the affected account was also his. In desperate times, desperate measures.Mirko Zago
