I think you should do a little more research into the actual events of the Saverin/Facebook story. Ben Mezrich's book, and Aaron Sorkin's writing are particularly fictionalized when it comes to this aspect of the story.

May I suggest "The Facebook Effect" by David Kirkpatrick for a slightly more legitimate history of the company.



Totally recommend that book too.

The fully story is a bit more complicated than you can squeeze into a hollywood movie.

Well, you can say the same about the book, but you do have to start somewhere.


Do the actual facts really vindicate anybody tho? It's still a terrible situation.
