I'm sure many of you have heard of Julian Assange. If you haven't, then I'm sure you were probably watching NASCAR or something that you impulsively thought was more important at the time (actually the media was probably just covering something they thought was more important like Lindsay Lohan's ceaseless legal troubles). I will inform you. Mr. Assange is the founder of Wikileaks, who was indicted for leaking classified information about the government and corporations to the public.
Now I'm sure 99.9% of you already know what Facebook is. Of course you do. That's how things work these days. And I'm sure you've all heard the name Mark Zuckerberg, the face attached to the largest social networking site in the world.
From the mouth of Julian Assange himself:
"What are the differences between Mark Zuckerberg and me? I give private information on corporations to you for free, and I'm a villain.
Zuckerberg gives your private information to corporations for money, and he's Man Of The Year."
Anyone familiar with the term "slight of hand" from magic? It seems the general public has become the audience in these magicians' show. Oh what an illusion it has become.
