A friend of mine used to have a Facebook page with about 180k fans back in 2008 or 2009. He was so greedy, he found some "javascript code to increase fans" and ended up giving admin rights to the page to some "hackers".

Then Facebook started requiring a password to make changes to page administrators, but they never returned the page to him.


When you put it that way it almost doesn't make sense, but if you change "1 million" to 0.075 percent of the population, it starts to.


What a world we live in
