I use Skype as my primary development collaboration platform for a group of freelancers. I do not have a Facebook account, I am not a privacy nut, but Marks comments on users being stupid about trusting him with information and his documented abuse of that information shows a core character flaw that I would not trust my data with.

I know that Facebook has grown bigger than Mark and that he was young at the time but that is a very damaging statement. Especially his condescending tone in how it was delivered.

If Skype joins the Facebook family, I would switch to Google offerings for chat, video and voice and find a third party screen sharing tool for screen sharing. I just don't trust Facebook and that is a statement coming from a guy that is not too overly concerned with privacy.

I hope it doesn't happen. It might be a good fit but I don't think Facebook would be the kind of company I'd want dealing with communication.

Please no Facebook, they already control most of our lives lets not let them watch over what we say and who we talk to.
