While the emotional appeal is to delete Facebook, the reality is that it IS a good social tool if used responsibly. It's entirely possible to create a burner page that has no information about yourself to connect with businesses and social groups.
But you shouldn’t have to spend money and add programs to secure your information on your own devices.
As of September 30, 2020, 1.82 billion people every day on average and 2.74 billion people at least once a month.
Imagine a world where people are free to decided for themselves what to use and what not to use.
Those aren't enough domains. You need to block all of these Facebook domains too:

FB has 2.89 billion monthly active users. Basically people who don't really care if FB has their "private" data, and that they use it to target advertising and other monetising methods. People that find it a useful service, and would actually prefer to have the service paid for in this way than with a monthly subscription. People who know very well that FB uses everything they put on FB in various such ways, and thus don't ever put anything on FB that is actually truly private. People who understand that if you put anything on the internet at all, you risk that it's no longer private, no mater where you put it, and how safe you think it is. And considering FB is a social media app, where the whole point of it is to share stuff, only a moron would put stuff on it that is truly private to them. So basically, 2.89 billion people who get what FB is, and aren't on their high horse about "privacy". Same goes for "security". That's who.
In that case imagine that same free world where people are free to communicate whatever information they please and people are free to decide for themselves what they expose themselves to and view.
What is the benefit of having all these domains blocked if one does not use the service of visit their website in the first place?Those aren't enough domains. You need to block all of these Facebook domains too:

I created a blank test account linked to a burner email. Right out of the gates it gave me lots and lots of friend recommendations that I was connected with on my primary account.
