It's not about protecting freedoms, it's about supply and demand (I think). Is Facebook made better or worse with the app discussed in the article? Better. Over enough time, the customizable option will win out. On a large scale, I think this means websites and internet companies in the future will be extremely cognizant of user feedback. Look at the add-on market, the iPhone app market, etc. Those barely existed 3-4 years ago when compared to today.
