Ah, okay. I thought we were looking to solve a problem, instead we want to inflict vendetta because we don't like something.

Look through my posts in this thread. FB causes shitstorms of damage not the least of which is aggregation / indoctrination of dissention through isolation.

FB is basically pushing monsters outside of its gates in hopes they "go away". They wont. lol.

Also there are legal practices call "punitive damages" so yes there exists legal statutes for punishing things that we determine we dont like.
