Facebook Haters Gain Momentum

Over the past week there has been a significant increase in backlash against the new Facebook design. Two groups in particular are rapidly nearing the 1 million user mark: Petition Against the “New Facebook” and I Hate the New Facebook. The groups have 800,000 and 700,000 respectively and they are both growing extremely fast. So how does this compare to the news feed backlash a few years back?

At the time, Facebook still had around 15 million users and more than 750,000 joined a group which protested the news feed launch.
