1. Your parents are outliers, ime 2. That wasn't my point. The question isn't: "Will they put up with sacrificing their privacy in exchange for the value they get?"

And I believe the answer to that is also "yes." And there is really no reason why that couldn't be the case. FB is not solving a technical problem that only they can solve.
