JERUSALEM (AP) -- Facebook founder Mark Zuckerberg, meet your Israeli doppelganger: Mark Zuckerberg.
[B]Israeli entrepreneur Rotem Guez says he has legally changed his name to that of Facebook's CEO, a gimmick meant to persuade the social networking site to back down from what he says are threats to take legal action against him.
[/B]
[B]He's telling Facebook: "If you want to sue me, you're going to have to sue Mark Zuckerberg." [/B]
He says a lawyer for Facebook pressed him this week to close his online business Like Store, calling it illegal. Like Store promises to enhance companies' online reputations by offering Facebook users free content only accessible by clicking "like" on the companies' profiles.
The Israeli acknowledged on Saturday his company violates Facebook's terms of use, but says many U.S. companies offer similar services.
Facebook declined to comment specifically on the name change, but said it was going after those who violate the company's terms as part of efforts to protect users.[/release]
Genius.
What a winner
"That tricky motherfucker.."
:v:

Well that is going to make the news stories about this case pretty confusing, if any more are posted.
What's next?
Israel renaming itself to Iran? Jerusalem to Tehran?
"If you want to nuke us you're going to have nuke Iran/Tehran"
Zuckerberg is a piece of shit anyway.
I want to legally change my name to Garry Newman.
We should all change our names to Mark Zuckerberg

Because this and that are completely similar situations.
The reason they're suing him is bullshit though.

I bet he changed his name just so he could crack that joke.
He is the only one that can save this planet.

Mark Zuckerberg is the only one to save this planet?
Changed my name to Genghis Khan.
All fear the horde.
[QUOTE=blysas;33763812]He is the only one that can save this planet.[/QUOTE]
...What?
That's actually a quite interesting scene.
What a failure. It's like he thinks identity is tied to your name.
What difference does it make? I mean i know for a fact that i share my full name with multiple people.
[QUOTE=rosthouse;33763950]Mark Zuckerberg is the only one to save this planet?[/QUOTE]
No, Mark Zuckerberg is.
Yeah, well, I have the same name as a random NPC from Crysis 2, ergo I'm technically a Marine.

What is your name? I'm curious.
