Mark Zuckerberg subtly made a case for not breaking up Facebook

It's not hard to understand why Mark Zuckerberg loves the empire-consolidating Augustus Caesar.

The 3,300 word note Mark Zuckerberg published Thursday about Facebook's approach to election interference contained some surprisingly frank insight into why Facebook has made some of the business decisions that it has. For example, Zuckerberg shared that he considered banning political ads all together (but decided against it). And that he was only opening up the platform to certain researchers because Facebook is now wary of misuse; thanks, Aleksandr Kogan!
