I really don&#x27;t get the argument here. If you don&#x27;t like Facebook, don&#x27;t use it. No one is forcing you.<p>Many people <i>choose</i> to use Facebook, and in fact use it a lot more than almost any other site&#x2F;application. Who are you to decide for someone else whether Facebook is good or not? Who are you to decide that these people aren&#x27;t really getting something out of Facebook? Who are you to decide that they&#x27;re all &quot;manipulated&quot;, forced to do something they don&#x27;t want to?<p>Seriously, at what point is it considered arrogant to just assume that so many people are &quot;wrong&quot;? 1 billion people choosing to use Facebook sure sounds like a pretty compelling argument that Facebook provides them with at least some value.
