Facebook is just a symptom.
To stop surveillance capitalism more then an email to congress is needed, starting with an amendment to the United States Constitution that declares a human right to personal data and digital privacy (like article 8 of the charta of fundamental rights of the european union.)
Abstractly there are three major ideas related to this: corporations are free to buy, process and sell any data they can however they want, 2) governments have access to all data 3) humans are to be protected from governments and corporations
America does not believe in 3 anymore when it comes to digital data. Changing this will take more then some 1-click-democracy portals sending e-mails to congress - and harvesting contact data for engagement.
