      This is pocket change for him. I don’t think there’s much spreading going on.

    How the fuck? A private company closed an account on their own server, within full compliance of their own terms and regulations, and somehow he can sue and profit from it?

      Zuckerborg praised Trump in an earnings call according to an article saw on here.

      So the guy paid the nonsense fine and praised the leader after.

      Ive wondered if zuck was doing tons of illegal stuff, and a small subsection of that was aimed at trump, and trump came to know about it somehow.

      And trump probably has plenty to throw him in jail, and zuck is begging for forgivenesa and he’ll never do it again.

      Thats my personal guess because even meta’s opportunity to be successful doesnt line up with the amount of ass kissing going on. Its weird.

    Fun fact, when you have $1T, $1M feels like what $100 feels like if you earn $100k

    “The Donald Trump Library”

    …it should just be comic books, porn magazines, and Nazi propaganda.

    I’m not a lawyer but does this not set a precedent for others in the same predicament to follow?

      It doesn’t set any binding legal precedent, but it does send a message that has similar practical effects.
