You Can’t Block Mark Zuckerberg on Facebook

It so happens that if you wish to block
Mark Zuckerberg from your Facebook
account, you cant.
You may have felt angry at Facebook for
various reasons like your fan page reach
has diminished or your pages get
unpublished and you may want to block the
account of the creator of Facebook, Mark
from your account, you’ll get an error
saying

Sorry! The blocking system is
overloaded Please wait a few
minutes and try again.

If you try to block him again after a few
minutes, you will get the same message.

It seems that Mark Zuckerberg , the
creator of Facebook and a man with around
31 million facebook followers is also one of
the most hated men on Facebook. The above
error message popups because of Facebooks
algorithm which kick in when too many
people try to block one user.


Facebook says, this is designed so as to
protect the voice of the people who raise
a campaign for a good cause, and people
who are not happy with the campaign try
to block the user. This is a general error
which is same for everyone and is
generated due to too many users trying
to block one user.
This was first noticed by a website Block
Zuck which seems to have been created
with sole purpose of testing this service.
After Block Zuck reported this peculiar
Facebook feature, Gizmodo spoke with the
website’s founder and learned that the
site was originally the base of operations
for a viral campaign to mass-block
Zuckerberg in protest of the social
network’s controversial user privacy
policies.
