Was Facebook (Now Meta) Zuckerberg’s monster…or was it a DARPA creation?
DARPA Lifelog:
“News reports in the media described LifeLog as the “diary to end all diaries—a multimedia, digital record of everywhere you go and everything you see, hear, read, say and touch”.[4] According to U.S. government officials, LifeLog is not connected with DARPA’s Total Information Awareness.[4]
The LifeLog program was canceled on February 4th 2004 after criticism concerning the privacy implications of the system” (Wikipedia)
Facebook:
Facebook is a social networking service originally launched as TheFacebook on February 4, 2004, before changing its name to simply Facebook in August 2005. It was founded by Mark Zuckerberg, Eduardo Saverin, Andrew McCollum, Dustin Moskovitz, and Chris Hughes.”

…and who is Mark Zuckerberg anyhow?
