No that’s fair. You’re right that it isn’t being actively blocked or anything, but Facebook themselves have not launched it because they know the privacy issues are pretty big and they could easily run afoul of the law there.

Obviously not to say they never will launch there, but I’d imagine there’s some significant changes that need to be made before that’s allowed.

Regardless, only time will tell, and I’m sure Facebook won’t lose the opportunity to expand. And like you said, time definitely played a part in this, I’m sure given more time we would have seen a launch all at once.
