There's a difference between a government and a private company. Imagine facebook was raising taxes and making the law too.

It's the same as the difference between the mafia and a private company; engaging with the private company is voluntary, but the mafia will hurt you if you don't go along with their demands.

The gang of thugs (i.e. the 'government') that demands your property tax will hurt you or take your property away if you don't go along with their demands. That doesn't make their demands "right" or acceptable, but you've been deluded into accepting it.

In a similar fashion, billions will go along with Fakebook and accept the pseudo-ownership of 'their property.'

That's the answer to your question "Who will want to own something without really owning it?" People just go along to get along.

No, there is a difference. The Mafia doesn't give you a choice. With the government you vote, and you can even decide to go into congress if you want to.

That said I don't like big government. But making Facebook replace it is like deciding to go for a dictatorship, it's the worst outcome.

If you think government gives you any more of a choice than the mafia, you have a lot to learn! :O

I live in a mafia state. You either have relationships or you don't.
