With the benefit of hindsight, it has been conclusively demonstrated that almost all mass murderers (over the last few years) have had a very strong social media presence including tell tale posts indicative of their intensions.
That will just drive the criminals to find any of the myriad of other media options available to them. For instance - 8chan, which is where one of the shooters posted. I'd never heard of it til this week. But obviously one of the shooters did.
