This NYT Q&A with Facebook exec Elliot Schrage, VP for public policy, has about as much teeth as a chicken. Maggie blogged the call for reader questions last week, but what was published today feels like a big wank for Facebook, and no real answers for anyone. Pathetic. Why was there no attempt by the NYT to poke at what's bogus or unfair in this guy's wiggle-words? Facebook's bottom line seems to be: "If you're using our service to share intimate details of your life with friends and family, you'll take whatever we give you, and we'll change that whenever we want without warning. Hey, you asked for it, privacy and user rights be damned." (via Dan Gillmor)http://www.boingboing.net/2010/05/11/nyt-qa-with-facebook.html
