I'm no fan of FB, but to dismiss the value of a platform where you can reach 5B users is a mistake.

I'm not dismissing the value, I'm dismissing the notion that fb itself is necessary in order to have that value.

Huge communication networks is what the internet does. Social networks always proliferate online. They're not technically that hard to build. Etc. We're not going to want for any of the "goods" that fb provides. That overall space is abundant.

I thought the name of that platform was the World Wide Web.
