What reason could anyone possibly have for hating Facebook and their Instagram subsidiary?

I'm not a big user of Instagram or Facebook, but with respect to the prior post by 'resident', I can say that they certainly never did anything to me or my family and friends... except provide a service that we choose to sometimes use. If someone doesn't like either or both product offerings, don't use them! Bomb threats are serious and I hope that we as a community will never condone, even indirectly, that kind of behavior. When they are real, they are tragic. When they are not, they divert valuable community resources unnecessarily, and cost our community time, money, and emotional energy... all of which are better spent elsewhere.
