Meta have yet to prove they can actually implement it though. I feel like we're worried about a theoretical, rather than an inevitability.
If you wait until it's a practical problem, chances are it'll be too late.
How? Nobody is going to switch platforms, so The only uses that they will have will be the users they bring and some users will switch away from meta to a more free alternative I can only see the numbers of users going up.
I see no point in preemptive action. I mean at least wait until they go live. I want to see if they actually are a problem you never know it might just bring some interesting new content.
