Is this guy for real? I'm pretty sure "Yeah, but those guys are doing it, too" is not a valid legal defense. If you're caught smoking behind the school bike shed, pointing at the kid next to you doesn't exclude you from detention, it's stating the obvious.
I'm a layman when it comes to these things, but I'm pretty sure that this isn't the case of "Facebook v Everyone Who Solicits Likes" with Guez representing. It is the case of "Facebook v Rotem Guez" (I refuse to acknowledge this nutjob's new name as anything of merit).
This guy has read the TOS and has violated it. I don't see his logic for thinking that others doing it gives him immunity. The fact that he's also doing this for money and he thinks that is somehow acceptable just boggles my mind further.
And his idea to change his name to see if Facebook will "sue Mark Zuckerberg"? My mind hurts from all the stupid. I can't tell if he's a troll or just a moron.
I think I'm suffering an anyurism from the amount of stupid I'm seeing here. I need to disconnect from the Internet and lay down before I pop another vein. This guy is just daffy.
