Results of the Inaugural Facebook Site Governance Vote

The results are in! No one gives a crap enough to vote about the new Facebook Principles and Statement of Rights and Responsibilities, so things are moving ahead as planned.

The more than 600,000 users who voted constitute a significant number of people, but at the same time that's a small number compared to our user base of more than 200 million. We made significant efforts to make voting easy and to give everyone the opportunity to vote — including by translating the documents and voting application into several of the most popular languages on the site, showing a message about the vote on users' home pages, and running advertisements and videos across Facebook promoting the vote.
