“If there was no positive impact people would simply abandon meth.”

  Yes, if there was no positive impact then basically no one new would start using meth and the meth user population would eventually die out. If you had an addictive drug and all it did was make all your teeth fall out with no extra side effects almost no one would take it. While yes, Meth is dangerous and addictive I don't think what Google and Facebook are doing is bad. How is Google giving people access to the world's data or Facebook connecting the world a bad thing? They are trying to do good things and are constantly trying to reduce the harm their services bring to people. They have entire organizations within these companies for doing so.

    > If you had an addictive drug and all it did was make all your teeth fall out with no extra side effects almost no one would take it. I can't help but notice that you dropped "positive" here, and I can only assume it's on purpose, as otherwise your argument would like quite silly. People using something does not mean it's positive. The list doesn't really stop at meth.
