People were choosing to drink heavily radioactive water in the early 20th century.
People are choosing to take drugs that destroy their lives.
When people chose something it doesn't mean they understand all the consequences. Especially since all the bad sides are conveniently hidden away in some tech, nerd stuff.
People use Facebook because other people use Facebook. Simple as that. People haven't assessed all the facts about Facebook and decided they are ok with them. They just use Facebook because their friends use Facebook.
Pretending people are rational and have perfect information considered harmful, etc.

Natural monopolies aren't inherently bad so long as the ability to compete is preserved. That's just my opinion. I don't think that the position that Facebook and Google in are inherently bad... but I do appreciate alternatives more than most. It comes down to freedom of information and accessibility of knowledge.
