I'm surprised that "information wants to be free" isn't on this list. It used to be a common mantra. Now it sounds quite quaint. What a lot of critics of Twitter, Facebook, etc. seem to miss is that a lot of their growth was related to the idea that only good could come from people knowing more about each other. People criticized Facebook for not making their social graph available to anyone who could sign up for an API key. The result, of course, was Cambridge Analytica. We've learned about the dangers since then, of course, but back in the early oughts it was an idea with significant traction among the very same crowd who can't keep themselves from commenting "Twitbook is a cancer on society" no matter how relevant it is (or isn't) to the story at hand today. Intellectual fashions change just like any other.
