I'm okay with the collateral damage this would cause.



Sure, whole countries would be in chaos... but only for a few days, I think. FB isn't doing anything original anymore. There's tons of clones and some are markedly better.

Yea, maybe a few businesses would fail, maybe some people would lose contact with old friends. But if fb is the only way you keep in contact with someone, do you really care about them?

Cost benefit analysis is easy to do, actually pulling the trigger is hard.


>actually pulling the trigger is hard.

I'll push the damn button, no problem. Just show me where it is. However, I'm guessing it's harder to find and is actually split into 7 horrocruxes.


Sure, you and I could push the button. But we're not in a position to do so.

Now, all the people in a position to do so are chained by perverse incentives to keep the whole shit show going.
