Perhaps the funniest part is Zuckerberg's indignation at someone sharing a copy of his family in the kitchen--isn't it annoying to have people use your data and likenesses in ways you don't control?
I recall being downmodded mercilessly because I dared suggest he was a hypocrite for buying those mansions around his, so that he could control who his neighbours were and thus have more privacy.
I still feel the same; I find it disgusting that his millions are put towards protecting the privacy of a man who got rich by eroding the privacy of others.
To me, this hoodie thing is just another piece of evidence that Zuckerberg is a complete phony. His image is manufactured, manicured even.

He made a utility that helps me keep in touch with old friends and relatives, and I haven't lost my privacy one bit. I don't find it disgusting at all that he spends his millions how he sees fit.
" and I haven't lost my privacy one bit. "
You don't think you've lost your privacy. There's a difference.

Nothing there indicates behavior that lies outside my threat model.
"I haven't lost my privacy one bit"

What a convincing and well-thought-out argument.
Not an argument. A reaction. Quite appropriate.
It's not appropriate for Hacker News at all.
Well... Appropriate for the discussion. So I would say, if the discussion is appropriate (for Hacker News) then so is the posting.
This also happened during the ending of the documentary film Terms and Conditions May Apply. The crew films Zuckerberg outside of his residence and he is noticeably indignant at them, being unresponsive to their questions and walking away. He then asks them to turn off the camera, which they do. However, they leave on a hidden spy camera, which shows how after Zuckerberg believes he is no longer being filmed, he turns around, smiles at them and politely gives them permission to pursue further questions at his workplace.
This is then used by the filmmaker to illustrate a powerful point. I don't really mean to demonize Zuckerberg, not at all. His reactions are absolutely normal and human, although his public history isn't particularly charming, and it's always interesting to see how a surveillance giant isn't any different in his reception to unwarranted surveillance from the layman.

Is this a good time to post this pic? http://cdn.theatlantic.com/static/mt/assets/food/tumblr_mq0e...
I don't get this. I looked up this article[1] to read about the photo. Yes, a group of people wearing hoodies, many hunched down, DO look more suspicious than the same group with lab coats and open stances! After registering that feeling, I looked closer to see they were all young blacks. This may say something about societal perceptions (bias against hoodies), but I think not really the racist stereotype they want it to say.
