No, I wouldn't shut down Facebook. There is no reason to. At all. It's a social networking site. So, every reason people give as to why they don't like it, are just apart of its job description.
I have no problem with people who spend their time on Facebook; each to their own and all that, so I wouldn't turn it off forever. However. I would just out of curiosity, just to see what kind of effect it'd have on society. Leave it off for like a week before letting people back on again.
I would rather not have facebook pervading our society as it has but worse even still is shutting it down because it annoys the fuck out of me.
No, don't shut it down because you are putting every website on the planet on the same slippery slope. Just try and get people to stop being fucking lemmings and live their lives without it.

Can't really answer.
No: well, because I use it and it's a good way to make sure the folks are OK (read your fucking e-mails, big sis!)
Yes: the concept of having friends on there is crap anyway... just how many of your 500 friends do you honestly communicate with on a regular basis, huh?! I have 150, and only converse with about 40-50 of them.
But, even if it was shut down, some whip-smart fucker is going to start a new social networking site and in six months' time everyone will be raving about it and going 'Facewhat?'

Yes. But I would also like to destroy all the physical data servers with a sledgehammer while I'm at it.
Shutting down Facebook would put a lot of people out of jobs, so that's just douchery. But aside from that, it helps me to easily keep in touch with my family on the other side of the country, my high school friend stationed in Iraq, and my childhood friend who moved to Holland. So it stays.
You know who else kept a lot of people employed? The Nazis.Kadir said:

I wouldn't shut it down, however...
There should be a mandatory test of general intelligence for anyone allowed to create an account.
Also, if you post six statuses in a row that are just lyrics from a shitty song with a <3 after them, YOUR ACCOUNT AND IP WILL BE PERMANENTLY BANNED, NO EXCEPTIONS.

YES!! Being myself I would love to see how many losers fall apart without it. That andI could blame my friend for it.

I personally said yes, mostly because I think that's the only way I could delete my account without my relatives bugging the hell out of me about it.
No?
how selfish and ignorant are you?
What if someone shut down all the accounts and forums on the escapist? same argument basically.
