People go to Facebook to talk to people they know in real life. Because of this, people are already somewhat careful about what they say (this is why I don't use FB). Strict censorship doesn't bother people sharing baby pics with grandma.

People go to Twitter to talk to people they don't know IRL. Many are anonymous. Free discussion and the lack of IRL consequences is a real draw. This is a very different type of communication from FB, and strict censorship will cause mass exodus.
