I'm not big on regulation........but with everything else being regulated...........and with the business model Facebook operates under........they need to be regulated worldwide....IMO

Regulation comes after there is abuse. FB abused the privacy of their members by turning them into a product to sell.

I suspect you will see Zuckerberg testifying before Congress before too long.  Zuckerberg and Sandburg both said yesterday they expect some regulations. I say give em some stiff regulations and have them pay a fine of 100 Billion to be redistributed to their members.

That will help the economy.
