Zuckerberg of intentionally misleading them into believing he would

24. “This is a great opportunity, but it
also requires greater attention to
and awareness of possible risks…
Does the danger exist that we may
be less present to those whom we
encounter in our everyday life?
…Virtual contact cannot and must
not take the place of direct human
contact with people at every level of
our lives.”
~ Pope Benedict XVI
