It's unreasonable for a social media platform with almost 3 billion people to be privately owned.

    how is that unreasonable? build your own network get it to 3 billion people on it and then tell me what you think if the government take it from you. Or even better go and live in CUBA, CHINA, RUSSIA Or NORTH COREA that where that type of thought belongs.

    Capturing lightning in a bottle is more about luck than about skill.

    People with no skills, don't build a social media such as Facebook, I don't like the dude at all but I can't fail to recognize his achievement. I dare you become a programmer and build your own idea may be you can capture that lightning you are talking about.

    from your mouth to the outside yes you will live in cuba, is not that hard to move there and yet you still outside cuba. I visited the country long time ago and from what I heard no much have change. I don't know where you from don't care either but unless you are from a 3rd world country you won't last a month in cuba.
