No. I just think it's posturing on his part. He's pretending to be something he's not, so that people see the friendly brogrammer instead of the ambitious "They trust me — dumb fucks" CEO who disregards privacy.



Call me crazy, but maybe he wears hoodies _because they're comfortable_. That's why I do it, and I don't see how making a bunch of money would have any effect on that.


Don't you think that maybe it's the other 99.9% of people that are "posturing"?

Some people just rebel against the "norm" of using clothing to represent their socioeconomic status - money or no money.


Some people rebel just because "f___ you, who are you to tell me what I can and can't do?" It has nothing to do with anything else.


This isn't rebellion (honestly that term is used WAY too much). It's just Zuck doing a little song and dance.
