This is an extraordinarily difficult situation that is developing at a very fast pace, so information to make the sort of analysis you are asking for is very difficult. As you have seen by the regional government inquests, most of our national leaders are struggling to keep up as well. Here are a few observations: 1) the smartphone has become a technology vector to the most remote areas in the world, and its natural use case is communication 2) data is expensive, so expensive that many regions can not afford it regularly. 3) connectivity infrastructure is very expensive, and many developing regions customer base do not represent the revenues to support it. 4) Facebook and other services growth depend on reliable data connectivity 5) what started out as a way to launder facebooks ad inventory profits to carriers to provide free data so that Facebook and carrier networks could expand, turned into a cultural invasion 6) now areas who had not experienced the level of connectivity that Facebook affords are using it in radical and sometimes violent ways. 7) those local communities are struggling to regulate it while the broader developed world is shocked at the results 8) it turns out each region wants to regulate this in very different ways and have very different culturally accepted goals about communication as a whole. I.e. censorship hate speech etc. 9) the variety of cultures means that a global standard to filter and control communications is a kind of np complete problem. What is hate speech in one region may be free speech in another. 10) the best positioned and leveraged entities to provide the super-oversight are as of today, private for profit companies. This is likely a distasteful solution to many.
