There are no laws restricting people from voluntarily posting personal data on the Internet Tubes.

If people are foolish enough to believe that any data can be secure on the Internet Tubes, there is little that the "government" can or should do.

It is not surprising that a large number of people who "work for the government" in the "information industry" refuse to have a facebook account or decline to participate in any social networking.

BTW, I would question the appellation that Zuckerberg is one of the most ''successful entrepreneurs'' in the last decade. He had one idea, albeit a very financially successful idea, but still only one idea and one based on a cultural fad. To me successful entrepreneurs are successful at succeeding at more than one idea.

Let's see Zuckerberg do it again with another of his ideas. Then I might consider him a successful entrepreneur. Barring that, he got lucky.
