Mozilla: "We’re taking a break from Facebook"

Hi,
I think the last few years showed that what once may have been a reasonable
point of view (i.e. trying to be a voice of dissent) is not possible on a site
that actively prevents their users from seeing those dissenting views.

I don't believe that Facebook will ever feel like a ghost town as long as
there is no exodus of a massive scale. And even then, the algorithms will do
their best to give the last remaining users an illusion of an active social
network.
> When will it be time to remove the FSFE page?
Given Facebooks analytics capabilities I assume that this question does not
need much guesswork. How many views does the site get? Are there any user
interactions?
If the FSFE feels that the numbers don't justify the possibly tarnishing effect
of being on Facebook, we can delete the account and get a nice press release
out of it...
Cheers,
Johannes
