The first big disruption of civilization will be fuelled on facebook. Look at what happened in the middle east and is happening else where. Starts out slow and happy and descends into violence and chaos which in large part will be started by police themselves.

I see it the other way around. I think Facebook and Twitter's goals are to disrupt that kind of chaos with their "trending" section. While these platforms can be used to mobilize, they can pinpoint exact location of unrest and try to prevent that kind of stuff from happening.
