Proves Facebook et al are assholes,
and that users are still retardedly cheap and dumb
to keep demanding "free" over privacy when better
alternative models now exist.

Distributed networks are growing, costs covered by
each participants node contribution to the network.
They are slowly obsoleting Facebook et al.

Even in centralized world there is huge opportunity to profitably
replace Facebook et al rolling out new donation and pay based
models using anonymous crypto payments to accounts and/or sites.

Many privacy enabled cryptocurrencies offer low transaction costs
that make funding months or years in advance possible.
