when zuckerberg comes, it is all over

nah, it would take a while untile facebook is ready for the blockchain, meanwhile others can take the lead

I don't think any giant company would want to go with blockchain at this moment. Regardless of how well established a company is, everyone has their own secrets which they don't wanna show to the world and we all know that the blockchain is transparent.

It would be like overhauling the whole Facebook platform if they integrate blockchain technology and I think it will be a huge task. Conversely, startup platform like REPU which will be developed from scratch has the big advantages with regards to integrating such technologies.

What would Facebook be using a blockchain for I wonder. It's more or less an advertising company now, so what do they care if the data is decentralized?

They don't need to cecentralize the whole platform. They could for example use crypto for payments like their advertisment and boost stuff for professional use. Also they could implement an reward system like Steemit has based on blockchain. I don't think they want to decentralize the whole, but there are different things they could do.

But why do need a blockchain for that? The blockchain is used to prove no one changed the data in between. Which Facebook user cares about that? It's full of fake news and ads.

Makes me also wonder why Repu needs a blockchain. Does anyone care about the blockchain features behind the rating?

Well I think the blockchain feature can be usefull for Repu. You can be sure that the rating itself is not manipulated, at least not after it was given. For some usecases it could be a very usefull feature.

for example human resources it would be nice. but not only for ratings regarding the employee its also usable for giving a feedback to the hr manager

is there any reason why an employee should rate an hr manager? where is the point?

the point is that people can evaluate the behavior of companies so they get more or less attractive for employees

It's good to be able to rate everything. Imagine rating a political leaders. That's world changing revolutionary invention

It would definitely be nice to have an accurate rating for everything/everyone. The problem is getting an accurate rating from people. Politicians are good are doing bad things behind closed doors - so someone who might act/look like the best leader ever may actually be deeply corrupt in reality

This work with the information you actually have. If something is not known unfortunately there is not much you can do.
