As facebook is a big company with big strategy which needs to be looked at
it from regional and national perspective than the outside perspective. In
Internet nothing is for free, facebook trying to connect the 1 billion
public is highly appreciable but what about the baggage that it has. 1
billion people being in control means great threat as well. Facebook itself
has a more aggressive strategy today just imagining what if it changes it
marketing strategy than its more threatening .

Looking everything from developed nation's perspective is kind of
challenging. It's has more cons than pros

Just my two cent thought
