Reminder: if you have a Facebook account, you not only fully support this shit but you helped to make it happen. Deactivate that shit now. No excuses.

This is how we make them listen.

This is for business accounts.

Yep. They’re trying to convert free business page users into paying customers.

Now that I think on it, it’s kinda odd one can advertise their business for free on another business’ platform.

No different than the phone book. Their business is selling ads (and your data).

So fucking what? Facebook is a festering shithole and no one should go near it anyway.

Unfortunately several billion people do visit it every month.

Holy shit, glad I left there long ago. Be interesting to see what this does with people who like to spew bullshit, or all those posts of recipies going around (if that’s even still a thing). What about community networks? Whole thing’s fucked.

This has nothing to do with private accounts. They’re trying to turn people with free business pages into paying customers, which seems fair enough to me.
