China Wants to Buy Facebook

Chief Operating Officer Sheryl Sandberg is reportedly “wary about the compromises Facebook would have to make to do business there.” If she loses her argument with Zuckerberg and Facebook enters China, the company will eventually be subject to demands to censor its sites, those both inside and outside China. That’s apparently why the Chinese want to own a big stake in Facebook. They are, in short, looking for control in the long run. No other explanation is consistent with the Party’s other media and “educational” initiatives.

Well, the Feds have a large stake in FB here at home. (remember all of the money the CIA/NSA granted to FB as a startup?)

China will be the next big boy

I am more than happy for the u.s to step down at babysitter finally

they are already doing projects within san fran, they can have facebook and hell they can keep our federal reserve if they want it.

Hell china, you can have obama, mittens, paw, newt, bach and the whole cast of 90210 who are pretending to be serious politicians and are nothing but a pitiful attempt at "change".

China, you want em come and get em.

Facebook? take it, too many americans are hooked on it anyways and would rather post wall updates than talk to real humans in person. Maybe we can get back to rebuilding our country.
