Many users at the individual level began to decide what to do with the social network and whether to delete it. As it turned out, removing Facebook is not so easy. This social network is so tightly embedded in the daily life of the user that refuse to use FacebookThis is about how - to abandon the Internet as a whole.

Below are the 3 main reasons why most people can't just pick up and stop using Facebook.

1. Facebook is technologically embedded in most third-party apps and social networks.

The Social Network Facebook Built into most applications that require full integration with your personal account. Google or Facebook.

In fact, many mobile and web applications require an account. Facebook, before you start using them. For example, until recently you needed an account in Facebookto register dating app Tinder. Deleting an account in Facebook means that the person will not be able to use this application.
In addition, under the account in Facebook people installed and used services from Spotify to Airbnb and Patreon. That is, removing Facebook, a person loses access to important content and information.

The scheme was rebuilt for a very long time, when users integrated through the two main platforms for using the Internet, which led to the fact that the presence of these two platforms became an unspoken rule for using the Internet as a whole.

2. For many people, Facebook is part of their work or school.

The author of the article recalls that he once deleted an account from Facebook, but he had to return it, because the editor insisted that all journalists have an account on this social network.

But not only journalists cannot fulfill their duties properly without using Facebook. This also applies to marketers, web developers, SMM-managers, bloggers and anyone who wants to effectively promote their personal and professional projects.

Moreover, the Facebook I got to the field of education. In 2012, a group of specially designed schools and universities began to be launched on the social network, where students form their community.
Applicants report that some colleges pay attention to the pages of applicants in Facebook and add extra points, or vice versa, they start to treat the applicant with incredulity.

3. Facebook is an important socialization tool.

This item stops most users from deleting this social network. Removing an account, you lose a lot of social connections. Your aging aunt Sally will be worried, since she will no longer be able to follow your life, your English teacher will be upset that she will not be able to write on your wall in Facebook, and your friend will be offended, because you will not be aware of his next drama. Besides, it will also be unpleasant for you if, for example, you miss a friend's birthday just because an event for all friends was created in Facebook, and you did not see him.

For a lot of people Facebook is an important tool of emotional and social connection with the world. Here there are different people who, perhaps, could not meet in real life, which creates a separate atmosphere and microclimate.

Yes, it is true that most Americans still consider a phone call a more reliable way to maintain contact. However, according to company researchers Pew 2015 of the year, more than 20% of adult Americans reported that they strongly depend on Facebook and other social networking platforms. And this figure has probably grown in recent years.

Facebook simplifies communication between people and has a certain weight in the cultural and social sphere. People are more likely to use this social network to check if you are in the midst of a disaster or you are safe. Facebook used as a notebook where information is stored about important events, moments, memories. And it binds more people to Facebook. The social network has changed the way people interact with the past and the present, with close people and the place that we call home.

Therefore, despite the increased calls to retire from Facebook, remember that everything is in order if you cannot do it for personal or professional reasons.

It's time to admit that Facebook - this is a global world system on which global social responsibility rests. Accordingly, this system requires supervision, and personal self-control plays an important role.
