. @SFGate A couple corrections here...
- There is nothing historic about this house. We launched Facebook from the Harvard dorm.
- We were not kicked out of the PA rental. It was a summer lease bc we expected to go back to school. https://www.sfgate.com/local/article/2021-04-zuckerberg-facebook-home-for-rent-bay-area-16115670.php

- There was briefly a zipline at the PA rental. No chimneys were felled, unlike the movie, but it did get a little scuffed. We feel bad about that.
Generally, we lived at the Los Altos house a very short period of time, as Parker decided he was allergic to it.

. @nypost your story has bigger errors. (I have no doubt the landlord told you these stories but she made them up.)
- The Winklevoss twins never visited the house.
- It was not homebase for Facebook; we had an office in downtown PA by then. No non-founder employees stayed there.

- (We didn't even have interns during those months)
- Absolutely ludicrous that servers were hosted there. You can't run a site like Facebook on some residential internet hookup. Total BS.
- It *is* very possible we left the doors unlocked.

I'm less sure about this but I do not remember the "rent this to us" on the spot thing either. My memory is Sean found the place on his own and it was a done deal by the time Mark and I visited.
Judy Fusco is a clever realtor, but I hope the new owners don't assume this is true.

As long as we’re here, a reminder that The Social Network is a fictional movie based on a fictional book. https://www.quora.com/According-to-Dustin-Moskovitz-what-are-some-of-the-inaccuracies-in-the-movie-The-Social-Network/answer/Dustin-Moskovitz?ch=10&share=62c1337a&srid=bt
