Concerning Facebook and Google specifically, what makes them “impossible to live without”? That would be very surprising considering I (and many others) don’t use them.
Not that I disagree with your overall sentiment.

Like you say, lots of people get by fine without, but is that because you have never really used them so much as to become dependent on them? The world worked without the internet, but try taking it back to that place now and you'd be laughed at!
There are viable alternatives to Google and Facebook that don’t require giving up on technology. It’s important for people to realize that.
