Those places are different cultures and sifferent social groups. I can also give the example of Japan and Korea in which Facebook is not very popular.
Facebook is medium popular in Japan, lots of Japanese have Facebook accounts, no idea about Korea. Nobody is really using wechat outside of china unless they have a strong connection to china.

The question is if the power is actually with Larry and Sergei, or if someone more powerful could easily seize power from them, or pressure them into doing something they want. If Larry or Sergei die, do you trust all their inheritors? Do you trust all people who can threaten Larry or Sergei? I don't.
Do you true the next secretly chosen and annointed royal red family president after Xi? That's if Xi actually decides to leave after his term is up, of course.
And that's why you should trust the chinese government, Google, private internet access, etc all equally much.

Does anybody else find it hilarious that not one, but two comments present suburbia as the eminent example of cheap rubber-stamp housing in the US?
Honest question, why is that hilarious? There is a huge amount of cheap, cookie-cutter housing in American suburbia. In fact, I suspect a large majority of single family suburban houses built in the last 50 years are rubber stamp clones from homebuilder planbooks.
