Zuckerberg continues to increase my support for a breakup of the facebook/instagram/whatsapp/oculus. He's not the sort of person that should be entrusted with the awesome power he's wielding over the world, if there are any.
Personally I could not think of anyone I would rather have run Facebook. With such great power, I think it’s positive to have a platform that represents a diverse set of views, and is committed to not policing content unless absolutely necessary.
He not only runs FB, he owns it and has 100% control over it - he has the majority of vote share on the board.
If he goes bad or power gets to his head, there's nothing to stop him but government.
Fortunately for us, Mark Zuckerberg isn’t going to “go bad” which is exactly my point. How could he? After everything he has said and done and stands for publicly he would be an outcast. A pariah. Reviled in the history books.
Additionally, he’s setting up an independent review board that codifies his way of thinking into a system that is independent and separate. Is it perfect? No. Could it be corrupted? Probably. Will it? I doubt it.
Your unquestioning faith is... unrealistic. Absolute power & all that.

The World Wide Web already provides an open platform representing "diverse views" and I see absolutely no value in facebook trying to claim that mantle as they have promoted such "diverse views" as the mass shooting videos and ISIS execution and propaganda videos even when alerted to the presence on their platform.
facebook under Mark Zuckerberg has not shown themselves to be worthy of trust and in fact have shown the opposite. facebook needs to be broken apart into its constituent parts as they cannot be trusted as they are.
