What you don't realize is that Facebook lets you keep tabs on friends only they like, let's you discover events only they approve and let's your business get presence only when it aligns with their ideologies. They are not content with enabling connections and are showing every intent to become the political and ideological filter for the world. The real money is when you control information. There is a lot of evidence coming out in India right now about how they influenced the elections in favour of the current ruling party. A party that has been involved in such shenanigans as demonetisation, Hindu nationalism, anti-Muslim rhetoric, weakening of the judiciary, complete media capture, and an absolutely abysmal management of the covid situation culminating in a 30% drop in GDP. If that is not evidence of net value, I don't know what is.
