So? Better advertising opportunities

Amazon KYuG83 Nov 15, 2018

So? Better opportunities to incite genocide and destroy democracy.

Mr Salesforce, why are you so obsessed with Facebook?

Salesforce xyzxyz111 OP Nov 15, 2018

Why don't you ask NY Times, Washington Post or Buzzfeed News the same question?

Lol acting like journalists have any motivation other than trying to generate clicks and more ad revenue just like everyone else

Spoiler alert: basically every big company is a trash company You can always find a reason to complain or say that it's evil or w/e If you think FB is trash you'll probably end up saying Google is trash, and then your next company is trash too

Bye.

You may be secretly doing this and so may Google, but filing a patent? It is not that hard in terms of algorithms but filing a patent draws people’a attention and serious concerns. Stuffs like this kill the future. The engineers behind this patent - your good work will not be pleasantly publicly accepted and you better not put it on your resume.

This isn’t a sinking ship. This improves their profit.

Salesforce xyzxyz111 OP Nov 15, 2018

False, their advertising business has slowed down recently!

Facebook Mr Freeze Nov 15, 2018

Growth has slowed. It becomes hard when you reach market saturation, you wouldn't understand.

The social responsibility of businesses is to increase its profits

Google Vxbcl Nov 15, 2018

I'd not be least bit surprised if FB goes up 20-30% like a rocket... To silence all these haters/bears.

Funding secured?

I was in disagreement on pandemic analogy published by Princeton. But now I totally agree.

Microsoft Qqcx31 Nov 15, 2018

FB seems unable to get their shit together. They need to fire some of these assholes making these terrible decisions. Starting with that guy that said expand at all costs or something to that nature. Is he still around?

I don't get the big deal. If you are uploading your photos to a free service that makes all their money by advertising, what do you expect? Let FB offer a subscription based model free of all data mining just to shut the complainers up and see how well that does.
