So let me recap.

A. Facebook is a necessity comparable to electricity.

B. A "need" is anything that an individual claims they need.

C. Facebook has no property rights or any other rights.

It also doesn't tell us where the need in question ranks on the Maslow Hierarchy, but those at top are still needs.
