Tech - Zuckerberg’s Topless Photo Fuels Privacy Fears On Facebook

Saturday 11 August 20121comments


A photo of a topless Mark Zuckerberg is burning up the Internet right now … immediately fueling suspicions of a major Facebook privacy glitch.
It’s unclear when or where the pic was taken … showing the kid billionaire sans shirt with a couple of male friends. Mark’s in pretty good shape for a computer nerd, celebrity website, tmz.com, reports.

Now for the conspiracy theory … The image surfaced on the image-sharing site, imgur, … along with a photo caption that appears to explain how the anonymous poster got a hold of the shot in the first place.

The poster claims the pic was “accidentally posted” by Facebook Director of Engineering Andrew Bosworth, who also appears in the picture on the far right.
The poster claims Bosworth deleted the pic “seconds later” … but it was too late, someone captured the image and splashed it to the web.

If so, it would be another black eye for the social network … which is still trying to recover from its epically poor performance on the stock market.
When PUNCH contacted Facebook via email for a comment, its Pan-Euro Communications Manager, Iain Mackenzie, said, “We’re not commenting on this. It’s a rather silly story. Regards, Iain.”.
