You claim that Facebook causes harm because people can communicate there without it being checked. You claim that the mail is different because they check that the mail isn't a literal bomb, and this is why the mail service doesn't cause harm. But people can communicate through the mail service without it being checked as well. In fact, checking somebody else's mail is very illegal. So the same harm you abuse Facebook of facilitating can be done through regular mail.
>Other communication services have effective security measures to minimize and isolate the harm they can do.
No, they don't. Let me put it in caps for you: IT IS ILLEGAL TO CHECK SOMEBODY'S PRIVATE CORRESPONDENCE WITHOUT DUE PROCESS. It is actually a violation of human rights. The mail service does not check what is written in your letters.
>The fact that terrorists choose Facebook instead of the mail should tell you that Facebook is the problem we need to fix.
This is so ridiculously shortsighted. They use it because it's popular and convenient, not because it's the only way to do it.
