Facebook New Features: CEO Mark Zuckerberg reveal the working of Dislike Button

After years of refusing to build one, facebook is finally going to build something for us to express ourselves other than a “Like.” CEO Mark Zuckerberg stated, "If you are sharing something that is sad, then it may not feel comfortable to 'like' that post."

He added: "It's important to give people more options than just 'like.'"

The exact form a “Dislike” button may take is still up in the air. “What users really want is the ability to express empathy,” Zuckerberg added. “Not every moment is a good moment.”

But he said a 'dislike' tool was "surprisingly complicated" to develop. 

"We don't want to turn Facebook into a forum where people are voting up or down on people's posts," he said.

For years, Facebook has resisted creating a 'dislike' button, fearing that it could fuel bullying or negativity.
