There is not only the problem of the timezone but also the unknown of the internet connection and the inability of reaching Western websites like Google.

What Facebook said fits perfectly in its strategy and I personally think it is just one step, and many others are coming in the future. On the web, Google has similar behaviors. And this also thanks to the non-mandatory but very-much-advised Google login on Android phones. It has been a well-studied strategy from the beginning.
