If there’s one thing that Facebook has been highly successful at, it’s making people numb and uncaring about any of these “bugs”.

Like the saying goes, “One death is a tragedy; one million is a statistic” — Facebook has made all its privacy blunders and issues over many years a statistic...something people may nod their head at, feel bad for a moment and go back happily to the same company’s platforms.

Unless lawmakers around the world do something, nothing will materially affect Facebook (the company). Even if they do, I personally have no faith that the company is capable of changing unless people at the top, like Mark Zuckerberg and Sheryl Sandberg, are out.
