Facebook Reacts to Outcry Over "Horrible" Change

By Rick Pearcey • February 16, 2009, 06:59 PM

Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg has responded to the clamor over the recent "horrible" change in its Terms of Service.

His reply seems to come down to this: Trust us -- "We wouldn't share your information in a way you wouldn't want."

Is this sufficient?

Adam Ostrow over at Mashable is mixed. Yes, it's a "fiasco," and Zuckerberg doesn't apologize or get to "the heart of the issue." But it "isn’t going to change the way I use Facebook."

At a minimum, however, we will think twice about what we post on Facebook. And more than that may be required. The expansive rights they ask for seem rather exravagant, to say the least.

What are your thoughts? Has Zuckerberg saved face for Facebook?
