I don't wanna talk a conspirational agenda into this, I rather put it under the paragraph "mankind shall become a superficial easy to control crowd". You know, when Jobs created the idea for Iphone, he didn't think about what the consequences for society. Neither so Zuckerberg. They were only interested in building up their enterprises (in Apple's case: saving it). The typical American story of a chief smiling before the audience at the tech exhibition and talking how wonderful and useful for everyone his invention is. The rest was very well with this as it wouldn't put effort into education of people and making them start asking questions. No-one should tell they couldn't know that circumstances like this could happen. You already had this in the 90s with the rise of regular mobile telephones - students playing round with them more than to pay attention in class. It's a total lie to claim that.
