Sounds like a great opportunity for someone. Nature abhors a vacuum.

FAKE NEWS, TOTALLY FAKE NEWS.

QUIT reading, clicking on IWB. They don’t even idenfify who they are or who their principles are.

I started checking the list of “deleted” facebook accounts.

I stopped when I found the first two on the list have not been deleted.

Wake up people, IWB is click bait territory 100%.

It just proves having one good idea does not make you a genius.

Maybe Facebook needs a class action lawsuit or two for selling users information.

Twitter and Facebook are gearing up for the 2018 and 2020 elections.

Looks like it’s getting to be time for Americans to defeat more fascists.

Don’t buy the hype of this article. As a person actively and deeply involved in Facebook marketing there are rules you don’t break. If you read the linked article, what’s happening is people are using automation to game the system. That’s not good for the user’s, ultimately.

Most of the younger set in my family thinks Facebook is lame. They have moved on. It isn’t cool. That rationale is on both the left and right spectrum among the the kids.

I did a FB search on three of the sites mentioned and found all three still on FB. But none had the number of followers that were listed in this article. Makes me doubt the credibility of this article.

Perhaps they were deleted but are just now coming back?

FWIW, I just got a bunch of Sarah Palin posts in my feed - which I rarely see. Seems like the gnomes in the bowels of facebook are tinkering with the algo.

Most of these pages seem to have been publishing anti-science fake news in the hopes of selling fake products.

From the looks of it, this is what a Fake News purge SHOULD look like: ridding the internet of what LOOKS like news, but is really deceptive advertising. The only problem — and it’s a legitimate problem — is that it’s a slippery slope from fake news to “fake news.” Today, it’s conspiracy peddlers telling people that scientists are conspiring to keep people dying of cancer; tomorrow it may be scriptural literalists questioning evolution or asserting that there are therapies to help sexual abuse victims overcome homosexual impulses, or simply dissent from the Deep State. Of course, some of that has already occurred (e.g., Diamond and Silk)! So this may not be a slippery slope TO that so much as a retreat to more legitimate fake news purges.

Facebook keeps me in touch with various groups: Friends, Family, former students, the Peterborough High School class of 1969 and most of the bikers who posted on rec.motorcycles.harley on Usenet in the 1990s and early 2000s. It is a excellent tool for that.

Compared to Usenet, it is quite civil and the graphics add what we didn’t have back then.

It is just a tool, like any other. If you learn how to use it, it can be very good.

Just reading the names of sites shown, it's probably simply a CYA act by Facebook.

Homeopathic remedies - alternate treatment for disease, etc., seems like a lawsuit in the making.

Wake me up when they're political commentary sites.

It is pretty foolish to have a Facebook account. Hopefully, more people will wake up to that fact.
