No president who wants to get re-elected would allow the CIA to arrest political dissidents as determined by their facebook statuses.
Or remember when people freaked out when facebook started selling information about what people "like"d to companies? All that it did was make advertisements more effective, which is a small price to pay for a service that essentially keeps the internet free.
