I really wish this weren't being reframed as an "opt out" discussion. The article is expressing valid concerns about the collective impact of FB. Opting out, even in large numbers, won't change the fact that the company has tremendous, unchecked influence on our lives.

I really believe if people left FB in significantly large numbers to something else with better practices, FB would be compelled to change. Even if they didn't change, at least you would not be a part of their bad privacy practices/manipulation/etc.
