MARK ZUCKERBERG’S NAME doesn’t appear anywhere in the 50-page complaint brought against Facebook by the US government Wednesday as it settled charges the company deceived millions of Americans over how it used and shared their personal information. But make no mistake: The Federal Trade Commission is not happy with how Zuckerberg has been running his company.

As part of the settlement order, Facebook has agreed not just to pay a record $5 billion civil penalty, as previously reported, but also to make substantial changes to the company’s structure and how it handles privacy issues. The order doesn’t hold any executives personally liable, as some commissioners had sought, but Zuckerberg will need to personally certify each year that Facebook remains compliant with its terms.
