New liberal caterwauling over Facebook advertising policies

WASHINGTON: There are quite a few things you need a Federal ID to do. Cash a check. Board an airplane. Purchase alcohol. But buy an ad on Facebook? Yes. As a business owner, there are Facebook Advertising policies before this, or any other publication can promote a post on Facebook. Or purchase an advertisement on their page.

The process to purchase an ad on Facebook includes proving your identity. This is a response to the Russian “meddling” but in reality, it is an ages-old advertising policy. The physical requirement has changed somewhat. Now we electronically send in a scan of a drivers license, provide a social security number and verify the advertisers street address. Address verification is a simple process in which Facebook snail mails, versus electronic email, a code to your address that the advertiser must then add to their profile. It is simple, and not in anyway, an overreaching way of verifying who is purchasing the ad or boosting the post, on Facebook.

And this is pissing off the party of liberal lunacy.

[snip] Calling all protestors

The problem is that groups who want to rally protestors, like the ANTIFA group in Portland that seized ICE offices last month, threatening employees and their families may not have the organizational structure necessary to advertise on Facebook, or Communities Digital News:

This might be a surprise to many, but those so-called social media platforms, like Google and Facebook, makes its money by selling ads. The more users, the more advertising revenue. The higher the profits. And the happier the bottom line. Unfortunately, people are not getting that message.

I don’t have any commercial logos on my clothes, and I don’t do fakebook. Does that make me a communist?

SSN is a government-issued retirement account number. It is not an identification number.

......so-called social media platforms, like Google and Facebook, makes money by selling ads.
The more users, the more advertising revenue. The higher the profits, the bigger the corporate bottom line.........

Facebook and Google consider users as "products"...to be sold. The more users the more they can charge for ads.

<><> Dems push for illegal votes could be a smokescreen for the electronic voting fraud they're planning.

<><> Facebook announced it "detected" midterm election interference.

<><> Facebook could set up dozens of fake accounts to setup the blame for "election meddling."

============================

BACKSTORY A Democrat vote fraud plan a long time in the making.

CAUGHT ON FILM --- Silicon Valley tech leaders colluding with Obama to set up the data base on Americans Maxine Waters told us would be used in Democrat campaigns. AKA The Obama Police State.

=================================

An extraordinary moment caught on film...tech masterminds of the universe in one place, toasting each other for screwing Americans in the name of Obama. Tech titans holding vast info on Americans plot the plan to compile a data base on Americans to be used in Democrat campaigns.
