With all of that having been said and out of the way, there was one problem that was facing this kind of feature and it had to do with the fact that you have to be logged into a Facebook account if you want to be able to contact a business. This limited the scope of the feature somewhat due to the reason that not everyone has a Facebook account and many might simply not want to utilize their account for a wide variety of reasons.
While some might argue that the number of people who would not be able to access the plug in is somewhat limited because of the fact that it is unlikely that someone wouldn’t have a Facebook account in this day and age, it seems like Facebook has taken this seriously. A big part of the reason why that is the case has to do with the fact that the social media platform has now made it possible to access the plug in even if you aren’t logged in. This will greatly expand the usability of this feature and is a sign that Facebook is moving away from getting people to log on and might be facilitating the use of its features to a wider public.
