Man Changes Name to "Mark Zuckerberg" After Facebook Sues Him

Posted by samzenpus on Monday December 19, 2011 @03:45AM from the you-need-a-better-plan dept.

An anonymous reader writes "This has to be the funniest Facebook name story in a while. Facebook disabled the account of Israeli entrepreneur Rotem Guez because he runs a business called the Like Store, where he sold Likes to advertisers. Guez countered by suing Facebook for deleting his accounts on the social network. Facebook countered with its own cease and desist letter. Guez didn't respond to Facebook's demands. Instead, he legally changed his name to Mark Zuckerberg. 'If you want to sue me, you're going to have to sue Mark Zuckerberg,' Guez reportedly told Facebook."

Who is Emil Protalinski? by gotpaint32 · 2011-12-19 04:00 · Score: 4, Informative

Why is Emil Protalinski's photo being displayed for this headline? It would lead the uninclined to think that is a photo of Mark Zuckerberg, aka Rotem Guez. Slashdot editors need a clue.
