I #deletedFacebook a decade ago. I've been more than fine, as will everyone.

Hearing people’s rationalization for why leaving FB is impossible makes you realize how addictive and insidious the product truly is.
Seriously. It's like listening to smokers rationalize why they can't stop.
Conveniently ignoring that smokers do have a substance addition to nicotine.
I'm not ignoring it. The rationalizations just sounds similar, that's all. If anything it speaks to the strength of people's addiction to Facebook.
