Mark Zuckerberg unveils his good resolution of 2018: fix all that no longer works on Facebook

The creator and CEO of the world's most important social network recognizes once again his mistakes and claims to want to correct the situation.

True promises or words in the air? One thing is certain, Zuckerberg wants the world to know he recognizes his mistakes. On his page, he writes "The world feels worried and divided and Facebook has a lot of work to do, whether to (we) protect ourselves from abuse and hatred, defend ourselves against the interference of (some) countries or we ensure that time spent on Facebook is well spent. "

Difficult not to read the last sentence without a yellow laugh, but still with more than two billion registered users, the social network plays an important role in our lives and a change is clearly necessary. 2017 was a difficult year, and it was felt on the site and its publications. Fake news, apology of terrorism, calls to hate, all published between always more videos often stolen from their creators, funny pictures already available on Twitter or Reddit, and pages that abuse likes and other reactions to gain a little money. As for the messages of your friends, in other words the basis of the social network, it was almost impossible to see them, drowned in this endless flow of nonsense.

"My personal challenge for 2018 is to focus on solving these important issues - we will not stop all the mistakes and hijackings (of Facebook), but we are making too many mistakes right now. is to enforce our rules (of use) and to prevent misuse of our tools ", says Mark Zuckereberg. "Today, many people no longer believe that technology can put a little power in their hands, with the rise of a handful of big tech companies - and with governments using technology to monitor their citizens - many people now think that technology only concentrates power in the hands of a few, instead of decentralizing it to the citizens. "

A nice speech whose author does not seem to measure the irony. Anyway, it will be necessary to wait until 2019 before judging. See you in a year to check if the bet was held.
