Sounds much more like an "aww, that sucks, I'm sorry - I don't like that this happened" button

Apparently that was the intent, according to the article, but the Facebook CEO recognizes the potential for unintended use.  I agree with tmcusa2.  I think it will create a forum in which people are constantly voting up or down with respect to the post itself.

Such applications, whether "like" or "dislike", are inherently horrible ideas.

agreed, but there are degrees of horror, and the latter will inspire more of it.
