"Kids under 13 should be allowed on Facebook ":Mark Zukerberg

Mark Zukerburg, Facebook CEO at the NewSchools Venture Fund's Summit in Burlingame, Calif. earlier this week,

"Education is clearly the biggest thing that will drive how the economy improves over the long term," Zuckerberg said. "We spend a lot of time talking about this"

"In the future, software and technology will enable people to learn a lot from their fellow students."

Zuckerberg said he wants younger kids to be allowed on social networking sites like Facebook. Currently, the Children's Online Privacy Protection Act (COPPA) mandates that websites that collect information about users (like Facebook does) aren't allowed to sign on anyone under the age of 13. But Zuckerberg is determined to change this

"That will be a fight we take on at some point," he said. "My philosophy is that for education you need to start at a really, really young age."

"Because of the restrictions we haven't even begun this learning process," Zuckerberg said. "If they're lifted then we'd start to learn what works. We'd take a lot of precautions to make sure that they [younger kids] are safe."

The Evidence – that damage relations between the two giants, that have already bitter rivals – came to light in leaked emails late on wednesday. Facebook later admitted that it had hired Burson-Marsteller to the Daily Beast.
