The Internet is just the netwok.  It is not Facebook, Instagram, etc.  They are
just unrelated services which use the Internet infrastructure, much in the same
way the old phone party hotlines were not the phone system, but merely
something which used the phone system.

Banning Facebook, et al isn't really disrupting the Internetl, technically
speaking.
