The internet thinks Mark Zuckerberg is a robot and now we can't unsee it.

Mark Zuckerberg has been the subject of intense US Congressional hearings following a data breach scandal that has plagued Facebook for weeks.

Political research firm Cambridge Analytica's dubious method of collecting user data via the social media giant has thrust Zuckerberg directly into the spotlight.

Zuckerberg has had to sit for long and arduous sessions where members of Congress directly questioned him about Facebook's current policies, as well as potential regulations to address fresh concerns about the site's influence. 

While this is actually a very serious matter, you know it wouldn't be an internet event if the memes didn't arrive hot and ready for your consumption. 

Yes, we too admire the internet's ability to turn a CONGRESSIONAL HEARING into a full-blown meme festival. 

Many people thought there was something a little...robotic about the Facebook CEO.

 

And it didn't escape the internet's notice that the whole thing was basically grandparents asking for tech advice.


It was only a matter of time, really.


The hearing inspired some very...specific viewing experiences.


And, of course, people wondered what the Winklevoss twins were thinking right about now.


WHOOPS


WelP


If this ain't you...


Imagine getting dunked on by a picture service.


The Congressional hearings into Facebook have yielded some...interesting revelations. Most notably, the internet realised en mass that Mark Zuckerberg is meme-able AF.
