Until we have a legal mechanism in place to hold these companies meaningfully liable for this, it will not stop. Every single one of these has the…

FB might or might not have a right to exist in someone's eyes, but the question remains: is 0.5c-like latency messaging across the world acceptable? Because facebook or not, given internets this is what you will end up with. People are people.
