"Is there some benefit to knowing the fate of Facebook?"

If you care about social media in general then yes, the fate of the world's largest social media platform is tremendously important. If your life or business doesn't intersect much with social media then, no.

Companies come and go in both existence and importance. If Facebook goes away tomorrow, something will take its place.

If your business is social media, wouldn't it be better to discuss how to improve it, new features, etc.? Where can a small company create a viable business?
