Back to Facebook, having never left it.

Okay. I've talked with some people about my leaving on Facebook and I got one thing to think about. I would be right in rejecting using a website which profits from a stolen idea. However, what if I'm also contributing to decrease all the benefits Facebook has brought to so many users around the world? That's the point. What if all the good things Facebook has brought to people overpass the fact it has been an stolen idea? Would the real creators of "HavardConnection" be able to manage the tool to become such a good thing? Surely, we'll never know this.

What we know so far is that considering the deal between the actual Facebook owner and their creators, it has gave many advantages to society. Professionally speaking, the creators of "HavardConnection" would need a really impressive talented guy to work for them anyway to make things happen. Maybe, if Mark had never stolen their ideas, Facebook would have never been created at all.

When getting to knowing an idea was stolen, a careful analysis has to be taken into account. I mean, if an idea comes to someone who is completely incapable of making it real, what difference does it make? That's nothing, actually. Science fiction writers would be billionaires though.

Not giving the credits to the person who has not made it happen would be as fair as not giving a science fiction writer the Nobel prize for everything implemented 50 years later.
