> Facebook is an abomination which ate up the entire Web in some 3rd-world countries. That's because they actually paid carriers to provide Facebook access for free to people. See Facebook Zero and Internet.org. The latter is particularly insidious because it looks like a charity offering internet access to those who can't afford it. It is not the whole internet, but there is a list of mostly educational websites, like Wikipedia, but in the middle of that list, there is of course Facebook. So really, they are offering Facebook access under then name "internet".
