Facebook Master Password Was "Chuck Norris" 319

I Don't Believe in Imaginary Property writes "A Facebook employee has given a tell-all interview with some very interesting things about Facebook's internals. Especially interesting are all the things relating to Facebook privacy. Basically, you don't have any. Nearly everything you've ever done on the site is recorded into a database. While they fire employees for snooping, more than a few have done it. There's an internal system to let them log into anyone's profile, though they have to be able to defend their reason for doing so. And they used to have a master password that could log into any Facebook profile: 'Chuck Norris.' Bruce Schneier might be jealous of that one."

You have missed the point entirely! The issue was NOT settled decades ago! In the experiment the monkeys picked the green M&M 2/3 of the time - exactly what statistics predicts assuming that a monkey has no preference and thus will switch M&Ms 1/2 of the time. Therefore, the researchers only proved the laws of statistics, not the theory of cognitive dissonance.
