For those not familiar with the story, Disney became a train wreck after Walt died in 1966. Power vacuum. Family idiocy ... Following the Jungle Book in 1967, Disney only had two hits, - The Aristocats and The Rescuers, - from their animation studio in the next 20 years until the release of The Little Mermaid. There was an eight year gap from the late 70s to the mid 80s where Disney only released one animated film, the Fox and the Hound, and that was plagued by budget overruns and disputes as lead animator Don Bluth and 9 of 'his guys' walked out at the start of production to start their own studio.

Disney was a hot mess, much like Apple was after Steve was ousted in '85.

Thing is, Disney makes stuff, Apple makes stuff...FB doesn’t make anything. It’s always possible to turn around a stock if you make a better product. But what if you don’t make anything? I don’t know that FB fits in with those other examples.

Facebook has said 50 million user accounts may be at risk after hackers exploited a security vulnerability on the site.

The company said in a blog post Friday that it discovered the bug earlier in the week. The bug is part of the site’s “View As” feature that lets a user see their profile as someone else. Facebook has switched off the “View As” feature in the meantime while it investigates the bug further.

The bug allowed hackers to obtain account access tokens, which are used to keep users logged in when they enter their username and password. Stolen tokens can allow hackers to break into accounts.

Facebook said that it’s reset access tokens of all users affected, as well as an additional 40 million accounts out of an abundance of caution. That means some 90 million users will have been logged out of their account — either on their phone or computer — in the past day. Facebook also said that users will be notified once they log in.
