Does anyone really think Facebook will still exist in the year 2070, other than perhaps as a historical archive?

Call me a pedant, but I think it would be a question for a clairvoyant only if we wanted to know whether Facebook existed at present, and nobody knew whether it existed.

In fairness, people sometimes seem to market themselves as clairvoyants and fortune tellers ?

Indeed I have seen light.
The longer I spend on Facebook the more I think it’d be difficult to tell the difference.
