Facebook founder Mark Zuckerberg was secretly filmed with spy glasses for Terms and Conditions May Apply, a documentary that investigates internet privacy.
The director secretly filmed Mark
Zuckerberg for his forthcoming film
about internet security and privacy.
Filmmaker Cullen Hoback approached the Facebook founder for his documentary
Terms and Conditions May Apply.
Hoback told AFP that he questioned Zuckerberg with a video camera outside the entrepreneur's Califonian home. He asked Zuckerberg: "Do you still think privacy is dead? What are your real thoughts on privacy?" Zuckerberg asked Hoback to stop filming, and he promptly switched off his video camera, causing Zuckerberg to relax and invite the filmmaker to contact Facebook's PR team. However, Hoback was wearing spy glasses which continued to film the exchange.
Hoback said his main motivation was to turn the experience on to Zuckerberg: "I just wanted him to say, 'Look, I don't want you to record me,' and I wanted to say, 'Look, I don't want you to record us'".
The scene is part of Terms and Conditions, which refers to the agreements
online users accept when using services and apps like Facebook. Hoback
questions the amount of data requested and stored by online giants and who
is sharing and collecting this information.
He said: "I think the craziest thing about this whole experience is that
I didn't realise I was making a horror film". The statistics Hoback has
found are worrying: it would take the typical internet user 180 hours to
read all the terms and conditions attached to their favourite websites.
