Technology entrepreneur, Elon Musk, believes that Facebook should be deleted as it is lame

Musk, while reacting to a post by actor Sacha Baron Cohen calling for Facebook to be regulated by the government over its content, Musk who founded Tesla tweeted “#DeleteFacebook It’s lame.”

In the post, Baron Cohen, wrote:

‘We don’t let 1 person control the water for 2.5 billion people. We don’t let 1 person control electricity for 2.5 billion people. Why do we let 1 man control the information seen by 2.5 billion people? Facebook needs to be regulated by governments, not ruled by an emperor!‘ said the actor and comedian.

This will not be the first time Musk is criticizing Facebook. In 2018, Musk deleted the official Facebook pages of his companies, Tesla (TSLA) and SpaceX, after it was disclosed that political consulting firm Cambridge Analytica had accessed personal informations of over 87 million Facebook users without their knowledge.

“What’s Facebook?” Musk tweeted at the time.
