This is the result of monopolies. The internet is meant for communication by defining protocols to connect all computers with each other. This allows everyone to participate and at the same time creates redundancy, which minimises failures. Companies like FB are a perversion of this purpose, instead of using free protocols, communication is done by a few programs. This creates the basis for censorship and forms a bottleneck or a predetermined breaking point.
