Im aware of the quote. I just think theres more cognitive dissonance than evil. He tells him self that facebook is xyz, and starts to believe it. I do think the force of public opinion has forced him to reconsider some beliefs about everyone being open about everything.
Sort of like CEO's making north of 20M a year and being completely oblivious to the fact that this is so far away from the norm and in his opinion it's perfectly OK to make thousand times the money of the (outsourced) janitor.
Nevertheless I feel that Facebook, including its top level managers, is one of the most untrustworthy companies around. If you think about it, their businessmodel absolutely requires it. I leave it to the reader if this is judged as evil (I obviously do).
For the record: I don't use any of their properties since 2013 and it galls me that I'm still tracked and spied on to the hilt and back.
untrustworthy in an ethical sense, BUT from a technical competence sense I trust them not to leak my data _in a hack_ quite a bit more than about 99% of companies.
