Facebook's Spying on you

Whoa whoa whoa, let's get some numbers straight. Facebook has not said they're worth a quarter trillion. Microsoft paid $240,000,000 for a 1.6% stake. At that rate, Microsoft is saying that 100% of facebook is $15,000,000,000. That said, I've soured a bit on the seemingly inevitable IPO. The darling of the tech world apparently had some bugs they weren't telling people about.
