This story feels like exaggerated due to weak link between Zuckerberg's messages and the new feature.

They also add that Secret Chats in Messenger, Whatsapp and Instagram already support removing an already sent message. Facebook decided to also offer this feature for regular Messenger chats.

I guess any headline carrying Facebook, Zuckerberg and privacy concerns can make it to top these days. Modern online journalism is a whole another subject.

But.. wasn't this product announcement only made after journalists started asking about the Zuckerberg messages? The original story WASN'T exaggerated, facebook are just trying to play it down by making it sound like anyone can do what zuck did.

Zuck was just beta testing! He's hard at work testing new features for your privacy!

When will he improve "Poke"? :)

Hey, we got Wink, Hug, High Five, and Hello, in addition to Poke, didn't we? ;)

POKE 53280, PEEK(53281)
