MODERATORS
With only one country doing this, they can soak the cost, but the ARPU (average revenue per user) of Facebook, or any social media site, is actually quite low. It literally costs them money to operate in the country now.
The question becomes "How many other countries can do the same before we are forced to care?"
Fun Fact: Reddit had the lowest ARPU of any major social media.
The average revenue varies wildly with how rich the user is, though. It's much more profitable to market to Norwegians than Indians given they have vastly higher spending power.
