Facebook says it has no plans for China

Despite a new sales office in Hong Kong, CEO Mark Zuckerberg’s visit to China and a robust growth in Chinese national users, Facebook says it currently has no plans for China.

Blake Chandlee, Facebook’s vice-president and commercial director for emerging markets said, “We have no plans right now to talk about entering into mainland China and trying to be aggressive in that.”

Is that true? I doubt so. Like Zuckerberg previously said “how can you connect the world without connecting 1.3 billion people in China?” I’m sure Facebook has plans for China but it isn’t ready to release its strategy. Why should they?

Facebook is trying to understand China, that’s for sure. However, it isn’t looking to enter the market, yet. It doesn’t mean Facebook doesn’t care about the 456 million Chinese Internet users. But with the ban, there is little Facebook can do except learning its culture and building connections with local authorities and Internet businesses.

Instead, I believe Facebook is taking an indirect approach to “force” its way into the China market. Facebook continues to grow in emerging markets like Taiwan, Russia and Thailand. It will not be long before Facebook hits 1 billion users. That figure can be achieved even without entering China.

Today’s world is well connected and to keep in touch with friends across the globe, Facebook will be the default platform where different nationalities come together. The Chinese understand that too. The pressure to stay connected will force Chinese users to sign up for Facebook. The ban may not be lifted… but who cares, as long as people are signing up. Sure, there are cultural issues and stuff like that. But if we were to think long term, all these are just small issues. No country is greater than the world and one day we’ll all be connected on Facebook, I believe.

THIS IS HOW MARK ZUCKERBERG STOLE FACEBOOK

It all started when DAVID was logged in to the Harvard website, where I was listening in to the conversations of the Harvard students. One of these students was Mark Zuckerberg who was talking about Face Smash and he had just broken up with his girlfriend at the time, so I struck up a conversation with this Mark Zuckerberg. He was talking about creating a dating site. I thought this was a bit odd – a pie in the sky idea since he had just broken up with his girlfriend and he was slagging her off – calling her a bitch and a whore.
dave talked to Mark about the idea, and suggested he call it Face Mash. He was intrigued with my suggestion and thought it was a good idea. Mark wanted to call it Face Smash, because he wanted to smash his ex in the face. I convinced him that Face Mash was a good idea and he agreed, but one week later he changed his mind and wanted to call it Face Smash. When I queried him about this he replied ‘f…. off you c…- I’m calling it Face Smash’. Two weeks after this conversation he came up with the name Mashable and when I asked him why he chose the word Mashable instead of Face Mash he said ‘f,…off you bastard, Face mash is not your idea’. So I re-posted the conversations we had two weeks earlier and he had to apologize and said he was going with Mashable. I took this as a sign that he wanted to throw me off the scent and take the site for himself. dave found the character of Mark Zuckerberg to be deceptive and dishonest and ended conversing with Mark Zuckerberg because of his dishonesty and lack of integrity

DAVID DUSTIN + CHRIS THE ORIGIN OF FACEBOOK

After this dave started conversing with Dustin and Chris about an idea of mine called Facebook for an online service where students can post pictures and information on themselves and use it as a directory. They were very intrigued by my idea and wanted to know more.
dave told them that in the beginning, it would be an online service just for Harvard students, and then spreading through the other campuses in America, joining them up together. The idea was to make it easy for people to connect with other university students so they could get an idea of what other campuses were like, and even eventually spreading through the general public, giving them an idea of what was on offer at the different campuses.
Dustin and Chris were very intrigued with my idea and said they wanted to be on board. but zuck was there roommate and wonted to be on board zuckerberg was apologetic about face-mash but it was bull shit
dave talked extensively about my ideas of Facebook and went into great detail of how to get it set up and started. They queried about the finance of setting it up and I told them I was in contact with Tony Robbins, who was interested by the idea and we were having discussions regarding his financial backing of the project

THE PLATFORM

So we needed a platform dave made contact with paul ceglia and was in discussion about a platform for my idea the facebook
but zuckerberg made contact to paul ceglia to steal the idea facebook ‘paul ceglia had no legal right to sell the the platform to mark zuckerberg but zuckerberg new what he was doing when he sign the contract
(paul ceglia had no legal right to sell the the platform to mark zuckerberg } the contract was to David not zuckerberg

EDUARDO

dave then found another contact at Harvard, called Eduardo Saverin and invited him to join me in developing my idea, and also to find out what was going on between Dustin, Chris and Mark . eduardo offered finance to get facebook up and running but zuckerberg spent the money on him self selfish prick zuck spent eduardo saverin money and spat in his face your best friend .this is the reason how eduardo got a invitation into facebook

THEN david got e-mails from zuckerberg saying he was not interested in the idea facebook david then contacted dustin chris to find out about this email i got from zuckerberg; they went into denial about this. but later on got a email from chris saying they were not interested in the idea facebook

CAMERON AND TAYLOR WINKLEVOSS

So dave found a site at Harvard called Harvard Connect (later, in 2004 changed to Harvard Connect To You) run by Cameron and Taylor Winklevoss, and dave explained everything about Facebook and the dealings with Zuckerberg, Dustin and Chris and how dave believed that Zuckerberg was in the process of stealing david idea, and dave asked if the Winklevosses were interested in running Facebook on the Harvard site

They expressed enthusiasm in the offer and liked the idea of running the site as they liked the concept of Facebook.They told me that they were going to change their site name and redesign it at that time (to Harvard Connect To You The person they called in to help them
redesign their site was Mark Zuckerberg who then stole their platform : I told them that zuckerberg was a crook the winklevoss where to dumb and dupe by zuckerberg And what do the winklevoss remind me off; its two building and the two buildings were the TWIN TOWERS you guys talk about the truth like you own the truth but you do not and never will

the winklevoss contacted summers at UV about zuckerberg but summers new the full story of how zuckerberg stole facebook and it was david idea
david then log a complaint to the FBI about this stolen fake connect 2u account with fake information and about mark zuckerberg

THE WINKLEVOSS BS

it did not take long for david to realize that the winklevoss were not up to do the job when cameron found out that david log a complaint to the fbi on zuckerberg cameron sed that is not the way we do things but tyler wonted to file a lawsuit on zuckerberg but cameron was the dominant personality and the hole idea facebook was on the verge of collapse david then got emails from the winklevoss saying they were now longer interested in the idea facebook( NOT A SURPRISE
DAVID found out later on that the winklevoss contacted WAYNE CHANG and sold 50% of the idea facebook my god how f..ing dumb can you get .all the winklevoss had to do was go hire a team of programmers or learn to program on their own .and the idea facebook was a sound and solid idea and the right skillful execution of the idea was all that was needed this was david skill.

CREATE A FAKE

zuckerberg then went on to create a FAKE CONNECT 2U account filled with FAKE information from the stolen platform he stole from the winklevoss Dave got a email from this FAKE CONNECT 2U account . but dave new it was FAKE it was zuckerberg .
zuckerber wonted more info and idea to steal so dave gave one idea and it was to put a silver layer around the F word on facebook to see if zuckerberg was going to steal this idea and yes he did

SO WHAT DID MARK ZUCKERBERG STEAL BY STEALTH

the idea facebook the name facebook the concept and the execution of facebook
david understands that zuckerberg has a mental personality disorder but this is no excuse for being a asshole and a thief zuckerberg
you see zuck dustin and chris new that facebook was a billion dollar idea but you stole the idea facebook . chris you may have step up about being gay but you need to step up and tell the truth about how zuckerberg stole facebook

MARK ZUCKERBERG GIRLFRIEND

yes zuckerberg got a girlfriend and no he did not get her from GRAIGS-LIST . but he did break up with his girlfriend and look for love on graigs-list or as zuckerberg put it looking for a new bitch .zuck did not realize that you had to pay for the girls on graigs-list .zuck sad what do you mean you have to pay you pay and if you are unlucky you have to pay twice when you have go to the clinic ; zuckerberg saw every thing as a possession some thing to take when he stole the idea facebook and his girlfriend ; zuckerberg social skills are that poor zuck can not pick up sand if he was standing in the middle of a desert and had to go back to his old girlfriend that is all he had ; facemash and facebook was zuckerberg quest to understand woman FAIL

zuckerberg do not use your girlfriend to polish your bull-shit it will not work and never will

THE SOCIAL NETWORK

friend-star it failed end of story : my-space was a good idea but failed to mash the idea with the changing social landscape
sean parker seam to think the only reason we won was because of the gross incompetence of myspace systematically over a period of many years
my god sean parker f..ing grow up you do not have your finger on the pulse of social change that just your but-hole

CHRIS HUGHES

chris you may have step up about being gay but you need to step up and be a man tell the truth about how zuckerberg stole facebook; and sorry for
telling zuck & dustin that you were gay back in the year 2003 .zuckerberg ask david if he was safe around chris when zuck found out that chris was gay chris do-not call your self a HERO tell the truth about facebook then you can call your self a HERO !! david contacted freedom to marry in order to contact chris ; the person david contacted at freedom to marry was Sean Eldridge. sean was given all the info on how zuckerberg stole facebook and agreed to contact chris hughes ;but Sean Eldridge lost his objective trip up and stuck his dick up chris hughes bum-hole and the relationship was borne : Chris Hughes just wanted to do something good with his billions. partner Sean Eldridge just wanted to spend his good billions so who is sewing who in this relationship; Chris will you name the person who motivated you to work for Barack Obama’s presidential campaign but you can-not ‘you stole from this person

AARON GREENSPAN the word-smith

david then went to Aaron Greenspan who was running house systems at Harvard and asked him (under an email non disclosure agreement) to run Facebook on his site which he agreed to do. aaron greenspan used the (info) to extort financal money out of facebook and zuckerberg paid the extortion money and dave call it extortion U see zuckerberg new aaron greenspan new zuck had stolen the idea facebook .I sent all the emails copy to aaron greenspan:{ aaron sold him self off like a hooker standing on a street corner } and what was that quotation aaron that quotation you set me about honour and truth you now the same bullshit the winklevoss are bullshiting on about
Aaron J. Greenspan says that while he was a student at Harvard, he came up with the idea for Facebook, the social-networking Web site
An e-mail message, circulated widely by Mr. Greenspan to Harvard students on Sept. 19, 2003, describes the newest feature of houseSYSTEM, as “the Face Book,” an online system for quickly locating other students. The date was four months before Mr. Zuckerberg started his own site, originally “thefacebook.com.” Greenspan retained his college e-mail messages and provided The New York Times with copies of his communications with)zuckerberg , mark zuckerberg did not dispute the chronology of events or the authenticity of Mr. Greenspan’s e-mail messages. NOT A SURPRISE

“When plunder becomes a way of life for a group of men living together in society, they create for themselves in the course of time a legal system that authorizes it and a moral code that glorifies it.” Sadly, most of the people don’t wish to bite the hands that feeds them
