Om Malik:
The combination of Facebook and anonymity is as awkward as the marriage of Michael Jackson and Lisa Presley — farcical, comic and an act undertaken for the express purpose of deceit. Anonymity and privacy are not part of Facebook’s DNA.
Boom!
Seemed like an unnecessary Michael Jackson slam, but he’s absolutely right. I trust Facebook to respect my privacy less than any other company out there.
Unnecessary? Wasn’t it an effective analogy?
