About Mark Zuckerberg (born 1984)
American technology entrepreneur and Facebook (Meta) founder, whose 2004 Harvard dorm-room project became the largest social network in history. Closely associated with Jack Dorsey (Twitter co-founder) and Sergey Brin (Google co-founder). For an intellectual contrast, see Tim Berners-Lee, World Wide Web inventor — Berners-Lee's open-protocol vision and ongoing Solid project are explicitly framed as rebukes to the platform-monopoly model Facebook pioneered — the cleanest 'walled-garden vs open-web' pairing in tech.
