Nah. Nobody needs to use FB to communicate, there are many dozens of available communication platforms, you can't even sign up for FB without a phone number anyway, this idea that FB is some critical communication infrastructure is totally false.

For some countries Facebook, Instagram and WhatApp are the internet. Official entities and company use them as the only form of communication with the citizens and customers.

Sure, this exists, but it's extremely rare, it's more of a talking point than an accurate representation of reality.
