They don't want to do anything that will limit membership. Because new members beget more new members. The reason the are approaching a billion is because they don't charge. Even a small subscription fee would see half or more of these people leave.

Another company who went the route of charging a fee is classmates.com, and I don't know of anyone who even goes there and I doubt most people have even heard of them in the last few years.

If FB is going to grow they're going to have to use the data. For something.
