Elon Musk joins #deletefacebook boycott, removes SpaceX and Tesla pages from Facebook site

We reported about Brian Acton’s famous tweet. He said on Twitter: “It’s time” with hashtag “#deletefacebook.” Now Elon Musk has just joined the “#deletefacebook” boycott. Today, Tesla founder, Elon Musk, deleted Tesla’s and SpaceX’s Facebook pages on Friday after prompting from a Twitter user.

“I didn’t realize there was one. Will do,” Musk tweeted back. He initially said, “What’s Facebook?” to a prior tweet from WhatsApp co-founder Brian Acton urging his followers to delete Facebook because, “It is time.” Facebook has since apologized for the data mishandling. “We have a responsibility to protect your data, and if we can’t then we don’t deserve to serve you. I’ve been working to understand exactly what happened and how to make sure this doesn’t happen again,”  Zuckerberg wrote in a Facebook post. He added, “The good news is that the most important actions to prevent this from happening again today we have already taken years ago. But we also made mistakes, there’s more to do, and we need to step up and do it.”
