Boycott Facebook platforms for 24 hours?

As Facebook’s Mark Zuckerberg prepares for testimony before US lawmakers on the firm’s data privacy scandal, a group calling itself Faceblock has called on netizens to send a strong message to the CEO that it can’t be business as usual for the social network giant.

Aiming to convey the depth of feelings of Facebook users over misuse of their personal information, the group has urged a boycott of all the online platforms of the tech giant for a period of 24 hours.
