Alternative Option: URL Filter
If managing via application control proves complex, consider using URL Filtering:

1.Navigate to Security > Web Filter.
2.Create a new URL filtering policy targeting specific categories or custom URLs (social media).
3.Apply the policy to the desired LDAP user or group.

If you want to block social media, is is recommended to use application policy ,

By url filtering you can not achieve what you want, because every site has multiply urls , sub urls and Pointing urls (linking urls)
user may open the desired URLs by multiply ways

Makesure the Network Policy has the correct priority and  it's configured correctly under Web Security/URL Filtering settings.

Hi, it is a strange behaviour, as if i put an application control policy on top that block traffic recognized as social media, i expect that this policy blocks traffic for the client that match the policy. Double check your policy and perform a precise traffic analysis on system -> troubleshooting to find which policies match your client when accessing to social media sites

Check if the policy is above all other rules that could possible allow the Social sites to all.
