Mark Zuckerberg warned his legacy will be 'a genius who created a digital monster' at European Parliament hearing
Mark Zuckerberg was warned that he risks being remembered as "a genius who created a digital monster", by a senior member of the European Parliament, where the Facebook founder and chief executive was answering questions on a massive data leak affecting millions of users. Guy Verhofstadt said that the only way for scandals surrounding the social media giant to subside, would be for its services to be split apart. "I really think we have a big problem here and it won't be fixed by saying we will fix itself," the parliament's chief Brexit negotiator said. "Could you and would you cooperate with European Antitrust authorities?" The Belgian MEP went on to suggest that Facebook's dominance could be stifled by splitting it from Facebook messenger.
