Facebook should be called to account if they broke any laws and were not prosecuted for it. I don't see any evidence of that in the article. What I do see is an article heavy on racial overtones, as if trying to manufacture outrage at Facebook.

What should a large company do in this case? Who should pay for the extra civic services that a company's presence causes? Residents?

If you pay, it's "sinister". If you don't pay, it's "parasitic". If you get your own, it's "mercenary". In all cases it is "dystopian".
