Picture this: Mark Zuckerberg, the tech maestro, plunks down a cool billion for Instagram back in 2012. Fast forward a decade, and we’re all raising our eyebrows at how this genius move seems to have outplayed the competition like a champ at a chess tournament—while they’re still trying to remember their moves in checkers.
The FTC seems a tad salty about it, arguing that Meta overpaid for WhatsApp just to keep potential threats in check (pun intended!). But as Judge Boasberg put it, what if we just accept that Zuckerberg is, you know, *really smart*? He might have just seen value where everyone else was busy scrolling through cat memes.
So, should we all be taking notes from the Zuckster on how to spot a hidden goldmine? Or is there more than meets the eye in this fight over social media supremacy? Let’s dive into the juicy details and see what’s at play here. After all, in the great game of tech poker, who knows what cards are yet to be revealed?
