HIGHLY CONFIDENTIAL - ATTORNEYS' EYES ONLY
1

Journal article was published.

2

BY MR. RUDOLPH:

3

Q

But after the article was published.

4

A

7:16:38PM

After the article was published, it was a

5

few days later that we removed the feature, and

6

so -- or we changed the way the feature works, and

7

so it would have been surprising to hear sentiment

8

after we changed the way the feature worked.

9
10

Q

12

And -- and -- and what did you change with

respect to how the feature worked?

11

7:16:49PM

MR. JESSEN:

7:17:13PM

Objection; asked and

answered.

13

THE WITNESS:

As we've gone over in detail

14

previously today, the change that was made in

15

October of 2012 was to no longer include the

16

share_count field as part of the counter next to the

17

social plug-in.

18

BY MR. RUDOLPH:

19

Q

7:17:23PM

So when I asked a little bit earlier, "Did

20

you ever hear of Facebook users contacting Facebook

21

to complain about this practice?" you said, "The

22

first time I personally heard about this was around

23

the time that this Wall Street Journal article was

24

published."

25

What -- what do you mean by "this"?
