Nah. Somebody has root on that giant cluster out in the Utah desert, and is, likely as not, cutting the second paychecks of some non-zero number of Google and AWS and Facebook SREs.

That person has far more leverage over far more people than Zuckerberg.

Yeah. You lost me right there.

This is silly it suggests the President is constrained by political forces (in part created by Facebook) but dosen't believe the Zuckerberg is constrained by these forces as well.
The phrasing in this article is pretty annoying. It basically loses all credibility by using sentences such as "They need to see your reasonable opinions and your thoughtful responses to their own, often unreasonable ones"
