History of

4. It was founded by Mark Zuckerberg with his college roommates
and fellow Harvard University students:
Eduardo Saverin,Andrew McCollum, Dustin Moskovitz and Chris Hughes
Published at February 4, 2004.
The name of facebook was inspired by the title of book for first term in Harvard University
which is contain of student’s profile. This book used to help the students to know each other.
The website's membership was initially limited by the founders to Harvard students, but was
expanded to other colleges, also corporations, schools, and by September 2006, to everyone
of age 13 and older with a valid email address.

5. Facebook’s Predecessor, Facemash
In October 28, 2003. Zuckerberg wrote the software for the Facemash website when
he was in his second year of college. The website was set up as a type of “hot or not”
game for Harvard students.
The website allowed visitors to compare two student pictures side-by-side and let
them choose who was “hot” and who was “not “.

6. Facemash used photos
compiled from the face
books of nine
dormitories, placing
two next to each other
at a time and asking
users to choose the
'hotter' person". To
accomplish this, Mark
Zuckerberg hacked the
"facebooks" Harvard
maintained to help
students identify each
other and used the
images to populate his
Facemash website.

7. However, the website was shut down by
Harvard executives a few days after it opened.
Mark Zuckerberg faced charges of violating copyrights, breach
of security, and violating individual privacy for stealing the
student pictures that he used to populate the website.
He later faced expulsion from Harvard University for his actions. However, all the
charges were eventually dropped.

8. In January 2004, Mark
Zuckerberg began writing the
code for a new website, known
as 'theFacebook'. He was
inspired this social media from
the incident of Facemash.

9. Just six days after the launch of the site, three Harvard University seniors:
Cameron Winklevoss, Tyler Winklevoss and Divya Narendra
The three complained to the Crimson, and the newspaper began an investigation.
Zuckerberg knew about the investigation so he used TheFacebook.com to find
members in the site who identified themselves as members of the Crimson.
He examined a history of failed logins to see if any of the Crimson members have
ever entered an incorrect password into TheFacebook.com.
In the cases in which they had failed to login, Mark tried to use them to access the
Crimson members' Harvard email accounts, and he was successful in accessing two of
them. In the end, three Crimson members filed a lawsuit against Zuckerberg which
was later settled.

10. Within the first month, more than half the undergraduate population at Harvard was
registered on the service.
In March 2004, Facebook expanded to
Stanford, Columbia and Yale.
In June 2004, Facebook moved its base of
operations to Palo Alto, California.
The company dropped ‘The’ from its name after purchasing the domain
name facebook.com in 2005 for $200,000.

(UO) is separated into four specific teams that review
certain report types
- The Safety team
- The Hate and Harassment team
- The Access team, and
- The Abusive Content team.
When a person reports a piece of content,depending on the
reason for their report, it will go to one of these teams

15. If one of these teams determines that a reported piece of content
violates our policies or our Statement of Rights and Responsibilities, the
team will remove it and warn the person who posted it. In addition,
Facebook’s team may also revoke a user's ability to share particular
types of content or use certain features, disable a user's account, or if
need be, refer issues to law enforcement.
Facebook also have special teams just to handle user appeals
for the instances when they might have made a mistake.
