  1. There can be no mistake – Facebook is big big business these days. The amount of influence and sheer users that Facebook commands is something that all legislatures should be paying attention to.

    I suspect we’ll be seeing more and more involvement at the state level as Facebook fights to increase its ability to serve and profit from users.
