FB is popular because it's a free service. I doubt when they introduce more ways to charge customer, they will instead piss them off.

I believe you can get a waiver from the SEC. I know I sure as hell would have.

Depending on what it is.. maybe.  Google started out as just a free service and managed to create paid services that people wanted.  No reason Facebook couldn't do that same.

Not sure what the deal is for employees, but Zuckerberg and others have already sold shares.

Add up: Zuck, "employees", Facebook co-founder. That's 68.2%. So what if I'm off by 10%? The IPO was only for 20% of the market cap, didn't know there were "so many" (ie 12% ownership) private investors pre-IPO.

Zuckerberg is the owner not an Employee. There's a difference.

Dustin Moskovitz & Eduardo Saverin no longer even work there, so why "add them up".

Anyway, 32% are employees, not 80% as clearly demonstrated. You were off by 48%.

You're always going around making a big deal over the most minor things, so if you're gonna go around and mock a company at least get your facts straight.
