Facebook is so pervasive and deeply insinuated in our culture, and people's daily personal/business lives, the ability to disconnect is a privilege and should be acknowledged as such. Users really just need to be more mindful of what they're putting out there, especially in regards to young children, and that applies to any platform.
That being said, Facebook's algorithmic extrapolation/data collection is almost indistinguishable from magic and they are deeply incentivized to engage in anti-humanitarian practices. Is the problem Facebook, or is the problem... oh, I d o n ' t kn o w, capitalism? ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ I think apathy is a reasonable and understandable response at this point in our trajectory, tbh.
