If you want Facebook to die, stop using it.
Meta makes 98% of its revenue from advertising, and that segment grew 25% last quarter YoY.
Meta has 3.19 billion DAUs and 3.9 billion MAUs (Almost everyone connected to internet not in China). Their engineers and scientists have invented digital cocaine and they've got very little push back.
They keep on printing more billions every quarter.
I don't use facebook and somehow facebook hasn't died yet. In fact, facebook is happy to create an account/profile for me since I refuse to and they populate it with data about me collected from anyone who mentions me on their platforms, as well as by scraping data posted to the web elsewhere and by buying up my information from data brokers. I said "No" to facebook, and facebook said "You don't get a choice".
There's no reason to think that if people stopped using facebook it would go away. Facebook has already demonstrated that they're willing to populate their site with shadow profiles and fake AI accounts to keep up the appearance of being filled with active users even as their real user count continues to decline. The AI they're using to make bots was (at least in part) trained on things I wrote, or were written about me, on sites other than facebook. When young people started leaving facebook for instagram facebook just bought instagram to keep them.
There is simply no way to for users to vote with their feet/wallet here. The best we can hope for is that advertisers will notice that AI bots viewing ads won't increase sales, finally get tired of all the other ad/click fraud going on and stop using the platform. Maybe then facebook will die, but even in that case I wouldn't hold my breath. Facebook will just keep trying to expand into other areas like healthcare, education, and shopping
None of us have any power. Most people will continue using it.
They bought Instagram and WhatsApp because they couldn't figure anything out.
