Facebook is Evil

Facebook is evil, but only in the sense that Wall Street, Big Business, Elected Officials, Gun Lobbyists and Organized Religion are evil. Facebook is so large and powerful that its decisions, for good or bad, effect millions of people. Its responsibilities, as is true in the aforementioned, are not to the people it serves, but to its own continued success.

That being said, I am writing another WordPress Plugin. I started reading about the new Facebook graph API and how you can use it to “Like” just about any page on the internet as long as it is setup correctly. This requires modifying of the web pages headers and including a “Like” button somewhere on the page.

A have mostly finished a wordpress plugin that modifies the headers and puts the widget on the page.

Does this make me evil?
