Going to the toilet is also a basic human right, yet many places don’t have widespread free public toilets. It doesn’t seem like a basic human right has inherent allowances.

The human right is not the right to use Facebook services, the human right is the right not to be spied on.

Facebook is not required to provide their services for free.

And providers of toilets are not allowed to secretly film you and share those films, even if they make the toilets free.
