Almost half of respondents (48 percent) said they have a favorable view of Zuckerberg, higher than the next most popular CEO, Apple’s Tim Cook, at 39 percent.

Even so, Facebook ranks lower than other tech companies in terms of whether their data is secure. Only about one-third of respondents (32 percent) said they are confident that Facebook keeps their personal information secure. By contrast, half of respondents said they expect Google to keep their information secure. And confidence rates were even higher for Apple (54 percent) and Amazon (57 percent).
