Probably because it's trivial to cut facebook out of your Internet experience. Google,... not so much.

For a long time, I would have agreed... Until my family began to confuse fb messenger with text messaging itself.
It's still easy to cut out of your life. I told my family if they want to reach me they have to use e-mail or the phone. This works surprisingly well.
I've explained how the messenger app isn't the text messaging app (called messages), but the similarity still causes it to happen occasionally.
