Facebook is not about features anymore. It is about the fact that they have 500M users. When you want to compete with Facebook, you have to grab 30% from the 500M to your side to call it a competition. You have to convince them that you have a better service and that they won't miss the people that are still on Facebook.

P.S. 1% of Facebook users care about privacy. The rest are not aware.

Agreed. The network effect is their advantage. Features are for tech blogs to write about, real people care that their buddies from 30 years ago are online now.
