The Silicon Valley business model explained in 15 seconds:

1. Eliminate as many jobs as possible by developing and marketing automation.
2. Export any jobs that can't be easily automated to low-wage nations.
3. Import workers from low-wage nations to suppress wages for all of the jobs that can't be easily exported.

Pretend it is all about inclusion and diversity. If anyone challenges the model, call them a "raciss" or a NIMBY.

What's this got to do with Facebook?

Facebook's business is automating the private investigator (PI). Before Facebook if you wanted to know about someone's private life you had to hire a sleazy PI to follow them around, listen in on their conversations, seriticiously take pictures, go through their garbage, read their mail, maybe even beFRIEND them and pump them for information. PI were sleazy, but they are also skilled at their craft and too expensive to be used on a mass scale.

Mark Zukerberg is the Henry Ford of private investigation.
