Nope, sorry to disagree but there were many of us who very loudly mentioned how Facebook is a terrible idea for society and mental health.
More like most people assumed it was safe, cause plenty of us saw it coming.
I hear you. I was also one of them. Never had my own Facebook account (someone made one “for me”) and I always found disturbing (there’s a scene in the IT Crowd episode that is exactly something I saw early that freaked me out). And being against Facebook is what brought decentralised social into my awareness.
But realistically, a large amount of people are active big social. Enough to characterise the way the world works.
