Absolutely, but over different things like work conditions or blatant discrimination. I think there is something new here. It's a social-cultural issue that in a government would have been handled by the supreme court.

Or over changing the formula of Coca-Cola. When you feel that the free market does not provide you with an acceptable substitute, it's in your interest to make your problem known. With any luck, you thereby make it in the corporation's interest to change. If not, perhaps you encourage the market to provide an alternative.
If they had just silently stopped using Facebook, there's no chance that any change they wanted would occur. That would be idiotic.
