I wouldn't put it above Zuckerberg himself to do it.

From that article:

During the conversation, Zuckerberg writes: "Yeah so if you ever need info about anyone at Harvard, just ask. I have over 4,000 emails, pictures, addresses, SNS."

When the friend asks him how he got the information, Zuckerberg replies: "People just submitted it. I don't know why. They 'trust me'. Dumb fucks."

He's almost certainly still the asshole he was then, but there's a pretty large gap between abusing access to a website you run in college and abusing access to a website you're payed to be the CEO of in your 30s.

Do you think he might have changed in 13 years? I don't really feel quite the same as I did 13 years ago.

based on his public appearances, no

Maybe,

But publicly denying your platform[0] did not affect the recent election; After research have confirmed prior to the election that Facebook have a fake news problem.

Does not do his credibility any good.

Zuck bragged about access, but there is no proof (or even indication) that he actually shared that info.
