When your company has 800 million users, its success kind of speaks for itself. But the social networking giant Facebook also has its fair share of haters. In fact, Facebook ranks as the most hated company on the 10 Most Hated Companies in America published by 24/7 Wall St.

Facebook made its initial public offering (IPO) of stock last month. The offering and pricing had negative backlash and critics bad-mouthed the company for weeks. Mark Zuckerberg has done amazing things to grow the company and its revenues, but critics complain that the young CEO does little to publicly inspire his company's new shareholders.

Sometimes people will just hate popular and successful trends. The internet has a meme for that: Haters Gonna Hate. Is that the case for Facebook?

247WALLST.COM reports:
Facebook currently has more than 800 million users. Any company of this size is sure to have some detractors. Compared to other leading social media sites, however, Facebook has the lowest customer satisfaction score from the American Customer Satisfaction Index.

    No thanks, I don't feel the need to do research at the request of paranoid people. Especially when I already know you're wrong.

    Facebook does sell user information, but it's mostly to marketing companies. And who cares if they also sell some to the NSA? I know you think they grab people from their homes at night, and sell their souls to the devil or whatever. But seriously unless you set your occupation to "Terrorist leader" or post lots along the lines of "I'm gonna blow up that building" they are not going to say or do anything. Or even find out for that matter.

    They simply do not have the resources to monitor everything posted.
    Look into the actual hardware capabilities before forming theories in future, K?

    You keep thinking that, little ostrich. Your failure to be informed doesn't make ME paranoid.

    It doesn't surprise me that you're in the UK.

    I've spoken to you, and read discussions involving you before. So If you have any actual evidence this time, rather than just half baked statements and racism, feel free to educate me. If not, maybe try to get some before attempting to convince everyone your theories are correct.

    Get lost. The information is out there, I'm not your daddy. Get off your mental ass and find out for yourself.

    Racism, schmacism. That card doesn't play anymore.

    So that's a No on proof.
    You really don't understand debate do you? Traditional, you back up your claims, and don't get angry when you're proven wrong.
    You've failed at both of those.

    Screw debate. You are WRONG. Figure it out for yourself. You will deny anything I say, but it will mean more to you if you find out for yourself that everything you know is wrong.
    Anything you learn in the UK will be INGSOC propaganda anyway.

    If you truly believe the British government is socialist, you're really don't understand the political spectrum.

    Do you know why you wont provide any evidence to back up your claim? I do. It's because you don't have any evidence to back up your claim.

    I have previously looked for evidence, or even anything that would slightly suggest facebook is some evil mega-corporation, or branch of the NWO working with fema to convert all your children to socialist and replace mecidine with alchemy, or whatever it is your claiming today. Do you know what I found?

    1) Details on their very specific & selective Advertising, where they pick out key words from your conversations and use it to provide you with relative adverts.
    2) Websites like "Above top Secret" where people spread and inflate rumours.

    1 of them is based in fact. The other is where you look.

    Insults to you. truth to the rest of us. Do yourt OWN research, lazy child. I'm not your two daddies.
    I never said you are immature, I said you are a CHILD,

    Okay. Seeing as you lack comprehension, lets break it down into some nice simple points:
    -You're understanding of truth is severely lacking.
    -I only have one father, even if my mother is very manish. and I am glad he is nothing like you.
    -I am lazy, but I am not a child.
    -As previously stated, I have done my research.
    -I can provide evidence to back up my claims.
    -You are yet to even attempt to back up your claims

    My sister has a very strong dislike toward Facebook. She has even blocked Facebook on her computer and laptop, any ads supported by Facebook will not show up and no one can access Facebook through her computer.

    She has issues with all privacy concerns, she's a programmer herself so she knows how easily people can get to all your information through social websites like Facebook. She has deleted any trace of her on the internet too.

    That's one of the reasons I've never wanted an account. I knew people would often use it to show off their lives, when realistically, pictures and people can lie, and you might actually have a better life than the people you are envying and not ever realize it!!! I have no regrets, and definitely don't feel like I'm missing out on anything!

    That is too harsh about Facebook. Facebook has many good qualities, too many advertisements. I find majority of members like playing the games. Facebook members don't get into much controversial debating, but Facebook members are more mature in their discussions. Facebook can be boring. SodaHead is far more interesting, very creative, versatile site. SodaHead is very unique. SodaHead however, is losing too much control allowing far too much quantity, not enough quality. SodaHead was more fun a few years ago. SodaHead is a great site for freedom of expression, but is catering too much to extremely young teens as 14 and 15 year old. They are starting to lose an older crowd. What made SodaHead interesting is the vast difference in ages, but now it is turning into an immature teen site.

    Just because some of the users are young does not mean we cannot share sophisticated opinions.

    I got cussed out and terrorized by a deranged young lady today. Simply because she didn't like my opinion. If we can't share, accept, analyze, discuss...then WTF is this site about? (^.^)

    Hate Facebook? Don't they have almost a billion users? Sounds like a love affair to me!

    The haters are probably jealous of the success of its founders and like Walmart, success in their eyes is evil. Wealth is something they feel entitled to and these people won't be happy until Facebook is brought down.

    I have a Facebook account and haven't been on it for at least 9 months. It is a tool like any other service and if you like it great and if it isn't of much use to you, there is no need to trash the tool. Just don't use it if you don't like it!
