During a question-and-answer session streamed live on Facebook on
Tuesday, September 15, Mark Zuckerberg revealed that Facebook is
currently working on a Dislike button, and it will be tested soon. The
Chairman and CEO of Facebook, Inc. said
"We’ve finally heard you and we’re working on this and we will deliver
something that meets the needs of the larger community. People have
asked about the “dislike” button for many years, and probably hundreds
of people have asked about this, and today is a special day because
today is the day that I actually get to say we are working on it, and
are very close to shipping a test of it."
The 31-year-old entrepreneur said that the company hoped that the button
wouldn’t be used to be negative but for people expressing empathy.
"Not every moment is a good moment. If you share something that’s sad
like a refugee crisis that touches you or a family member passes away,
it may not be comfortable to like that post…I do think it’s important to
give people more options than liking it."
