I'm not sure you made the case for why facebook is a monopoly. They don't hold a monopoly on friends list online. Everywhere I go from instagram, tiktok, snapchat, xbox, etc. They many of a monopoly on your friends attention but communication can exist outside of these networks. Why require XMPP, if XMPP is a superior product people will find it and use it. You may need food and water but you don't need a certain brand of tuna because everyone else is using it. It sounds like facebook purchased a new big screen tv invited everyone over for free. All of your friends went over tonight and you want to shutdown the party so everyone will go somewhere else you approve of.
