Not long ago Facebook was praised especially in "White" countries media on how Facebook was helping establish "democracy" in "third-world" or "non-white" countries. Tired of this 'not in my backyard' mentality' of US polity.

You're assuming that the same people are doing the praising and complaining. In my experience, the people who don't like Facebook, don't like what they are doing anywhere. The people who like Facebook, who I assume are mainly those with a financial interest, are pretty happy about Facebook in general.
