There's a lot more product than just Facebook, making this look a lot like a witch hunt. There are games, foods, brand retailers, who all do this to the exact same extent. The difference is that facebook has utility that lends to participating as frequently as possible (same as MySpace and newsgroups before that). The regulation is needed because of the ubiquity, not the behavior.
