- NEW Winklevoss Twins 2020 Interview • Cameron & Tyler Winkle...
In 2002, Tyler and Cameron Winklevoss say they presented their idea for ConnectU, a social networking site for college kids, to Harvard classmate and programmer Mark Zuckerberg, now the founder and CEO of Facebook. Their account will now play out on the big screen in "The Social Network."

Wow you did not make any video again,??
Who would have thought that crypto assets would skyrocket in value in such a short period of time? As I learned from trading experts and my trainer, the cryptocurrency market is dynamic and tends to rise and fall, so learning to manage risk is one of the main ways to capitalize on this price volatility. In a bullish trend, it would be a shame if we couldn't make money in the cryptocurrency market by trading or holding. While trading is a more profitable and difficult earning process, trust me when you say the end is worth it. I used signals from Mr. Jace Gillan. This has greatly improved my trading experience, I easily place trades with signals and watch them trade with minimal losses. Thanks to Mr. Jace's strategy and help, I was able to earn my first $ 43,000 on cryptocurrency. You can all turn to Mr. Jace for help.

It makes perfect sense to me that a man who's socially awkward would want to create a way to communicate with people from the safety of the other end of an internet connection.
😂😂😂😂LOL
It was not his idea.
And to have people tell him he’s a genius (he’s not) he just wanted to be Sean Parker he maybe would have made and sold a few apps for a few million but Facebook (not even his idea) was stolen and he calls his consumers “dumb f%%%s” for trusting him with their data as a human being he’s objectively a bad human being Facebook itself had over 20.3 million self identified accounts of child endangerment and Facebook is known for spreading misinformation for the sole fact it’ll keep users online longer. When mark is on his death bed he won’t be able to scan or buy his way of eternal damnation.
yeah but still wasn't his idea
Nah .twins at a time when about to be separated and make their own way in life.. Seem more natural.
Least didn't get the Harvard treatment ted Kaczynski got.. Those twins just got robbed, Much worse at harvard, Zukerberg is just puppet for the real thiefs.

Eisenberg said it best in the movie: "If you guys were the inventors of Facebook, you wouldve invented Facebook."
They were gullible to trust Zuck.
they acted so professionally when he brought up the term “evil genius” that was insanely respectable

"If you created Facebook, then you would have created Facebook."

I thought it was "if you were the inventors of facebook, you would've created facebook"
To the people correcting my comment, I wrote this comment in 2014. Give it a rest.
It's important.
A Nicol "If you were the inventors of Facebook, you'd have invented Facebook"
These guys were gifted 65 million. They did nothing for Facebook. They didn't code it, they didn't spend millions marketing it. They had an "idea".
+David f Actually as stated in the movie, Mark didn't use any of their code.
+David f You do realize that when you officially work for someone, it becomes legal, right? It's not just a bunch of college nerds grouping together and coding something up, if it was already an established business then zucks wouldn't have been able to steal their code without getting into major legal troubles. The brothers didn't even talk about any legal contract signed they simply talk about their "idea". Employees have to sign full contracts and if there was such a contract made, Zuckerburg would have become broke.
+David f Also, at the end of the day, they lost and Mark won. Mark saw a potential to earn a lot of money and he probably realized that the brothers had no idea about what they were doing, so he went in for the steal. If they were really that good at creating ideas and coding, they should have built another, better business.
+jagjit bhatia I doubt that the twins would have been able to outperform Myspace. They didn't have any significant knowledge or experience in technology and weren't in touch with the tech community. They were spending too much time rowing their boats.
agreed. Plus, based on the way they talk about their oh so precious "idea", it seems like they really didn't have much passion for it. If I was in their place with their claimed intelligence and Zucks stole my idea and even my whole project, instead of acting like a bitch and whining about it I would make something that would absolutely tear down facebook. Unfortunately, I'm not that intelligent and Zucks hasn't done anything cruel to me......yet :P (Although, I don't even think he did anything wrong to these two men. I think they were either careless or there was something else going on.....as they say, you need two hands to clap)

I believe mark definetly screwed a few people over in the process of launching facebook. However as some have already said, there is a difference in saying something and actually doing it. Mark was the one who actually thought it and did it. I don't think those twins would of ever developed anything had Mark not done Facebook.
winkelvoss’ hired mark to launch their app but he stole it & facebook was public shortly after
No, he did not. The Facebook at its core was 1:1 the site that Winkelvoss brothers assigned Mark to make. The fact that he went global doesn't change much.
@@The_MEMEphis Not saying what happened or what didn't. I just saw the movie recently, and it showed similar stuff.
@@enormousdinosaur.3103 The movie was based on a book called "Accidental Billionaire"
legally, I guess it would depend on who developed the first design. I can't decide if that would be the code or the layout and features in the context of the twins situation. Maybe a more appropriate analogy would be a painting. I describe a painting I want made to a painter and they say okay, we'll be partners and he'll make it. Then a painting that looks like the one i described to the artist is released by that artist. Who is the owner? Who's idea is on the canvas? In the art world the credit goes to the visionary as the designer. Maybe the twins do deserve some credit. Hard to say in the digital world

Patented ideas are private
vartik sethi extremely specific ideas yes, but a social media site where people can chat with friends and keep up to date is not at all specific. ideas cannot be patented. The light bulb was an idea but there are a 1000 different light bulb companies. myspaces was a lot closer to facebook if anyone had a right to sue it was them but these twins won because of their rich daddy.
zaah haaz hi.
The time they guys the twins got the idea they had it as a business idea and at that time social networking sites were not available. I don't love or support the twins but just stating the right thing apparently
vartik sethi there were many social networking site available at the time, not very popular but still in existence however that does not matter, you cannot patent or hold claim to an idea so broad and general.

@@penasaurusjones7808 Sure, but they DIDN'T create it. They had an idea. That's a huge difference. 65 million is quite a lot for doing nearly nothing to implement it.

But the features are like the same.
damn mark says that line in the movie
@@markarmage3776 what exactly do you mean by design? Did they write the code? Did they make him sign a NDA? Also their idea wasn't so original the concept of social media existed long before they thought of it, why do they deserve anything? Facebook is everything it is because of Mark, what Mark did was douchey if i was in his place I'd have paid my respects to the twins but what he did isn't unethical.
"The movie Facebook doesn't want you to see" That is funny, Mark said in an interview how if it is inspiring people to learn programming languages, then watch it, and he also stated how he went out after a day in the office to watch it himself, although well directed, was very hollywoodised. I agree.
The movie said it best. There was a line like “a guy who invents a really nice chair doesn’t owe money to everyone else who has made a chair.”
No, imagine you were working on an innovative chair which was more comfortable than any other chair, you hire a guy to build it and he tweaks your idea and lies to you during that time that he's working on yours.

Man the old Facebook looks so clean and fresh. The nostalgia is kicking in.
the best point in the movie is when mark says "if you guys were the inventors of facebook, you would have invented facebook."
these twins are so dumb by not making Zuck sign a contract at the moment of "hiring him", Non disclosure agreement, 'n' stuff. If you see 100 dollars on the sidewalk, don't you take it? well, that's what Zuck did with the idea of the Winklevosses.

What are you talking about? He clearly stated in interviews he wasn't going to see the movie. If you look at the IMs that were released and third party accounts, the movie seems to be spot-on. Even when Zuckerberg was asked to comment on the movie's script, he just talked about the fact that he didn't have a girlfriend at Harvard.

I've watched the movie and still don't understand this case. These guys wanted to make MySpace for college students - how can they stake a claim on an idea that was already out there? They did well to get any cash.
Jonathan Deller Because they already had code in place. It wasn't an idea - it was a real thing and because there was substance that is why there is a case.
+Sean Dougan ok, but Mark didn't use any of that code
dav 2one Well I mean he paid didn't he? That denotes a shade of guilt in my book. I don't know weather he settled out of court or if a judge decided. If a judge decided then its clear cut he did in fact use their code or ideas. If he settled its a notion of guild.
Either way - he paid, why pay if you didn't do the crime?
Sean Dougan You would pay just so to put that incident behind you. But honeslty I feel like this case is more of a he said she said kinda thing.
I disagree - he had the money for a superb legal defense which would be less money than paying out what he did. In my opinion I do think he stole code or was at least "inspired" to write a derivative code.
Whatever happend facebook is still lively, strong and changing the world - weather he stole it or not.
"What do you do for a living mr. Winklevoss?" "I perpetually seek litigation against facebook."
Like Michael Corleone said. "Never let anyone know what you're thinking". Always keep your ideas to yourself!
Or...file for patent protection before discussing a good idea. Shouldn't Harvard students know that?
If he didn't use their code, and just took the general idea of what many other people created and tried to do at the time (in fact, it's reported people literally copied Facebook), then they have no reason to moan. The fact they've even got a penny/cent is ridiculous. It was a competition, and they lost it. I hate this world.
Havr you watched the movie? lol
Why are you simping for a billionaire
@@peteaxe2067 This makes no sense you cretin
Tom from Myspace could of easily said they were stealing his idea lol. Looking back Myspace was way better than Facebook I miss being able to design my own page and fill it with music and other cool stuff.
they wanted to create hardvard’s own myspace and mark zuckerberg learned from their first codes to start his own for fb
Notice how they still call it “The Facebook”
having an idea and making it work (among over billion people) are two separate things
"I don't need to because I'm 6'5" 220lbs and there's 2 of me." good movie.They're pretty close to the way the actors portrayed them.
They don't seem as intelligent as I expected.
You have a very low bar for what you consider intelligent
I don't know, it might have something to do with the fact that they went to Harvard Bussiness School or something like that

I don't feel bad for them. We live in a world where you protect your ideas.
I honestly like these guys a lot. Very well spoken and handle this interview really well.
These guys are now worth close to 4 Billion each. I guess they were pretty smart after all.
"Do you see any of your code on Facebook? Do YOU?!"
Nooo, Facebook was my idea. :).
Yes, I know that..
Just plain greedy. People are never satisfied. $65 mill for doing nothing thats pretty good.
But it was their idea. It not the money its the principle. He stole their idea and he is a billionaire because of it. Heck they probably never needed money from they minute they were born.
Dingo Smuggle Myspace and social media websites already existed before they themselves started.
Dingo Smuggle They had an idea of which the bulk was already in circulation under the name of MySpace. He's not a billionaire just because of their idea. He's billionaire because o his skills and the skills of his team. If they had kept the idea it would have fallen flat after a few years. They didn't have the skills to turn it into an empire. They couldn't even write code.
xyndey They actually got a lot of their $ in Facebook stock and face books evaluation is much more now so they are worth double that
MsJubjubbird So what? Some random guy is now a billionaire and extremely powerful over a stolen idea.
Everyone has a good idea but almost no one has the knowledge or determination to turn that idea into a product.

"The man described as socially awkward is today's king of social media." Welcome to modern society....
this is why you should always be careful about sharing your ideas.
Well that's the first lesson in business. Protect your idea!
The fact is that this matter should have never been presented to the courts for "legal resolve". The winklevoss twins are behaving like elementary school children and have been since 2004, suffice to say Mark isn't exactly perfectly ethical but wasn't everything he did done on legal grounds? The twins never actually obtained a patent for their intellectual property that they claimed mark stole from them. End. Of. Story.... As an individual, you can express ideas, but if you want to be more than that and be a businessman, you have to express ideas following consolidation and formal ownership measures. It's like a science fiction author suing engineers and physicist for stealing his/her hover car idea or time travel machine concept,(which mind you occurs all the time between the science and science-fiction community) if that sc-fi author wanted to create those things, he would have already invented them, the book is his and the scientist can't take that but the ideas in the book are fair game between everyone who can understand and shape them... Facebook is Mark's and whatever the winklevoss twins planned to create never emerged and that's their issue not the rest of the worlds.
John Malko the problem is that mark never read their code, he started from scratch, somebody's else code can take a lot of time to read and understand, he got the idea of "friends in commun" himself
yea and now nobody remembers these irrelevant twins while mark is laughing his ass off in his mansion. those two idiots can whine all they want about how it was originally "their idea" but if you ain't got idea of how to build the project, all the tools and resources you were given are just completely irrelevant.
"A person who makes a chair, does not owe money to everyone who ever made a chair! "
Wow!!! I am so speechless, Never knew this happened. Need to watch that movie...
"I'm 6'5" 220 and there's two of me!" Best line of the film and so true. They're huge lol. I wouldnt fuck with them
The fact that they're identical twins makes them seem even more villainous.
How do you know that he didn't use any of the code for Facebook?
I can't wait to see the film.
Even if it was unflattering, I don’t care who you are, if they made a movie about you, you’re damn well going to watch it.
There was already social networking site likes this in Japan way before Facebook and myspace. In reality it was not a original idea every one borrowed something from eachother.
ideas are not intellectual property
Um... legally it is, its called "intellectual property" for a reason. And stealing it is known as "plagiarism". Which can be legally binding in a lawsuit if proven in court. Ill be glad if someone stole your ideas and made money off of it. You wouldnt be shrugging your shoulders saying, "Oh well..." if this had happened to you. $4 billion is a lot of money, and it would eat away at you during sleepless nights.
+Chris VeeDubyu If someone else was able to build it before and without me, then I think they deserve it.
+Chris VeeDubyu Ideas are nothing. Execution is all that matters. If someone stole my idea and made a lot of money with it, I wouldn't kill myself, I'd say: "Damn, why didn't I do better?" I don't care about people that self-victimize. The mere fact that they are posing as victims show they don't have the business acumen to succeed. And they got a few millions for their mediocre contribution.
ok but don't say it came from mark's mind then because it did not..
Mark did not invent it PERIOD.....HE STOLL IT....
IF YOU THINK HE HAS THE RIGHT TO STEAL WHEN THESE GUYS TRUSTED HIM OK....BUT DONT SAY HE INVENTED IT ....HE DID NOT....
Mamãe, sou cult No you wouldn't. Do you have any idea how it feels like to have something in your mind that could potentially change our world views? The way we experience the world? Something you think could become so important and necessary for the development of humanity? An idea you have been daydreaming about since you were a teenager? Getting something so important taken away from you is devastating. However, these twins don't look that devastated.
Who is here after watching “The Social Network"
They didn't create Facebook. What they had in mind wasn't at all what Facebook became. The only thing in common is the name. They got a lot of money for asking a guy to build a project for them.
im a programmer and if someone hire me to program something i wont be stealing the whole concept, because that is, guess what... a steal
The world needs both Mark Zuckerberg and the Winklevoss Twins. All of them are heroes despite the conflict.
Lol why exactly
myspace and other sites may have existed before connectu, but mark agreed to help the twins with their social network, and instead he ditched them so he could create "thefacebook", i think that's what they are angry about most, not that he stole their idea, but abandoned them. i don't think mark stole their website, but it certainly inspired him to create facebook, it might not have existed otherwise
"The Winklevii aren't suing me for intellectual property theft. They're suing me because for the first time in their lives, things didn't go exactly the way they were supposed to for them."
They invented Facebook but their website "ConnectU" sucked so Facebook took off. That's business.
While it may be morally questionable, if Zuckerberg did in fact steal the idea from these guys, I still feel slightly (shamefully?) happy that a computer geek stuck it to these snoody gentlemen.
this news report is like a high school presentation
MySpace already existed. You can't own an idea for a website.
Its clear he took some elements of Facebook from them, particularly the early stages. They wanted a social network specifically for harvard, he made a social network specifically for harvard.
However the question is would the company be worth what it is now under the twins? no they would have a had a Harvard only website which would have made nothing.
An idea for something and creating something are 2 different things. Mark realized he didn't need dead weight. He realized they were just coordinators (middle men) to something he obviously knew he could do on his own. Hard to blame him. Besides the "idea" was literally MySpace for college students, basically. It really wasn't rocket science and not very original. It just needed someone capable to create it. Obviously the twins were incapable...
It’s almost like they had an idea, acted on it and hired mark to help with development only for him to steal the whole idea. That’s like hiring a chef, having the chef steal a recipe and claim it’s his then saying “there is a difference between actually cooking and thinking of a recipe”

I do get that they felt misled by the original contract and that they're angry about it, sure. But 65 million? You could live such an incredibly comfortable life on 65 million. Why would you waste your time grasping at what you don't have, I'd be living the easy life, being grateful instead of bickering on TV.
First of all you are assuming that 65 million people something to them. They are from a very wealthy family and they may just be motivated by other things.
