Dystopian as fuck
Just evil but you’ll never see anyone punished for it.
This kind of shit should not be tolerated.
Advertising targeted towards minors needs to be banned.
As with basically everything bad in the US, it’s another reminder that Reagan was a human shitstain.
Your classic 80s cartoons were toy commercials. Candy, toys, cereals started being marketed directly to children.
All ads suck, but ads based on user rather than content go too far.
lol, Jesus. It is like what a screen writer would come up with for a movie that contained a terrible company run by terrible people doing stuff so outlandishly terrible everyone watching would think "the absurdity of the terrible is how you know it is made up".
can't believe a social network started by incels in college to rate girls sexually would do something like this.
That's 0% surprising. FB had always been about making girls feel bad. It's in its sorce code
Facebook started as a Hot or Not website. Fucking creepy.
YouTube also started because the founders wanted to see the Janet Jackson nipple slip. (Which fuck them for that.)
Ya FB is,was and will forever be bad for society and woman especially
I mean,do you really think janet jackson didn't want people to see?

Facebook... now even more toxic than previously known!
The book is very good. Reading it now. The writer starts off with a great story about a shark attack.

TIL teen girls still used Facebook.
even a scathing rant about surveillance capitalism becomes fodder for the machine, as you can clearly see with the ads on this page.
Ads? I can see no ads...
At some point we need to start criminalizing shit like this and actually holding people accountable.

Teenagers should not be on social media. I rest my case.
I wish I could ban old people from it as well because when their mental processing ability declines, so does their ability to detect bullshit news from bots

Happy I got AdNauseam after uBlock Origin. Deleted my facebook a year ago, shit is an AI slopfest built upon the greed and manipulation of every part of the chain. Defcon 31 has a good talk that brings this up. "Disenshittify or die" by Cory Doctrow, cann recommend to watch.
I stopped using mainstream social media in 2019 but my accounts are still active so I can snoop on random people I went to college with and holy shit every time I get on Facebook it's so much worse on ways I don't even understand. Most recently I got on to look at something and my feed was completely unrecognizable because it was all AI generated slop from pages I have never heard of and not any updates from people I know. It's crazy what people will accept if it's done slowly enough I guess. I legitimately don't understand why anyone would use Facebook as it exists today. At least when I quit I could at least understand why people used it.

Goddam I had to read that headline 3 times before I understood the implication!
That is outright disgusting, and such practices ought to be outlawed.
Or as Trump would say, very cool and very legal way to make money.
