Facebook tried to profit by breaking privacy policy which sparked a quick revolution of sorts demanding "privacy, or else".

The idea of profiting on others' personal information, especially by manipulating "consent" via fine print, is repugnant. The idea in particular that a social networking site would attempt to sacrifice its loyal members privacy for profit, especially in the growing age of ID theft and internet predators, is telling of the company's top management, whether they repealed it or not. No doubt they preferred to get away with this for financial gain! Mass protest works.

This message should be heard loud and clear that privacy matters most and people are beginning to stand up for it, against its abuse by both government and the private sector. Government agencies as well as banks, credit check companies, and even the government agencies have been reported to have lost key identification files of customers and clients.
