In 2003, much of the US (let alone the world) was still running on dial-up
In 2021 over half the world is running a smartphone of come kind - ie, they have high-speed data
Word-of-mouth (literally) and early restrictions on thefacebook[dot]com meant you had to have a .edu email address to join (and initially it was limited to Zuckerburg's own university - even having a .edu didn't guarantee access ...your school had to have already been added as a valid domain)
Kinda like saying a Tesla is faster than a Model A
