Literally who do you think they could cite? Who else apart from Facebook knows what people on Facebook search for? You can't cite someone else for data you have collected yourself. At some point the chain of citations needs to start with someone presenting some data. We can't all endlessly cite each other in a big chain.

Do you reject all new collected data because it doesn't come with a citation?
