One problem is that financing the use of the Internet has been equated with "lets put ads everywhere". I meet so few people who are willing to pay for most Internet sites and services. They have to deliver some great value to be able to live on paid subscriptions. Would you pay for Facebook if all ads were gone? Or Twitter? I can barely find a use case for these services anymore. Strip it to Messenger and the event pages and that's 95% of all use cases that go beyond narcissism. Also, I am not sure if Facebook is responsible for the observed stupidity and idiocy or if it simply reveals them...
