    Well, they can access the Internet to get to Meta, they just don’t do much beyond that.

    It’s like the old AOL days, if you can get to AOL, you can do more than JUST AOL.

      I don’t think you’re totally wrong but I know that WhatsApp, and Instagram to a lesser degree, are the primary means of communication for a massive number of people worldwide. I agree that it’s a problem for one organization to have that much of a critical mass insofar as being able to communicate with your friends and family effectively, but at the same time it’s not really feasible to try to uproot all of your loved ones and mass migrate to another service.
