"doesn't that apply to this site too?oO"
I'm looking at an ad right now that says Jesus Christ is Lord, so I'm going to guess no. Unless they're trying to tell me something. |

Sure. No ads. No revenue. You think sites like this are going to keep operating simply as a public service? If there literally were no ads sites like this would change to a pay model. Seems like a horrible thing to look forward to. |

Not really. This site attracts people with content and that content is surrounded by advertisements the same as watching network television.
Facebook collects your information and sells it. It is FAR more targeted. |

So, they want my personal information so they can tailor ads for my preference? I wonder how that's working for them, because i haven't seen an ad since i installed adblock plus (which everyone should use). It's nice to experience the internet as it is now but as it was back in the early 90's, free of ads. I feel sorry for people when i go to their house and play a youtube video and this ad starts playing, or go to a regular site and i'm bombarded with ads. I look forward to the day when everyone uses adblock plus |

And now they want you to pay to promote your own personal posts. |

Absolutely. Facebook knows everything you give it and then they sell it to advertisers so that advertisers can more specifically target you to sell you s.hit. |
