Should Facebook Buy Skype?
- nkassis 16y agoI hope it doesn't happen. It might be a good fit but I don't think Facebook would be the kind of company I'd want dealing with communication.
- kno 16y agoPlease no Facebook, they already control most of our lives lets not let them watch over what we say and who we talk to.
- kls 16y agoI use Skype as my primary development collaboration platform for a group of freelancers. I do not have a Facebook account, I am not a privacy nut, but Marks comments on users being stupid about trusting him with information and his documented abuse of that information shows a core character flaw that I would not trust my data with. I know that Facebook has grown bigger than Mark and that he was young at the time but that is a very damaging statement. Especially his condescending tone in how it was delivered. If Skype joins the Facebook family, I would switch to Google offerings for chat, video and voice and find a third party screen sharing tool for screen sharing. I just don't trust Facebook and that is a statement coming from a guy that is not too overly concerned with privacy.
