Facebook being a data gathering arm of the CIA and other agencies worldwide, is detrimental to young people the world over. I suggest it should be banned. It is harmful to all who use it.

There has recently been a spate of suicides in Japan because young entertainment personalties have been harassed on Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, etc. Ban Twitter twice. Two of the suicides were from the same "reality" show.

Imo they should have never allowed them in Europe. Because there is not only this suicide complex of problems but these companies also act as a giant data vacuum cleaners for people not even having an account there.

Most of their business methods violate our data protection laws clearly.

As it was proven many times.

Above that: They pay almost no taxes in the countries where they make their profits and

handle their workers (like their delete-armies) like slaves.
