(Reuters) - Meta internally projected late last year that it would earn about 10% of its overall annual revenue – or $16 billion – from running advertising for scams and banned goods, internal company documents show.

The fuckers got away with it.

The company. The people who made the decisions. All of them.

They got away with killing hundreds for the sake of a few cents per share of increased earnings. 🤬

I never said I had full authority, and if I did I didn't really mean it. And if I did really mean it, it's not a big deal. If it really is a big deal it's only because you're biased and I'm the real victim here.

Text from a friend:

Just an idea for you to tweet (or whatever you use these days)

An alternative strategy for limiting flights from major airports would be closing small (private jet) airports and sending those air traffic controllers to the main hubs.

But that would impact private jets and that would be terrible.

Meta earns $3.5 billion every six months from showing Faceboon and Instagram users 15 billion “higher legal risk” scam ad impressions a day, internal documents state.

That haul vastly exceeds how much the company expects regulators
To fine it for running scam ads.

Clearest sign ever Chuck shouldn't do it. If Trump wants you to do something and is melting down about it, you do the literal opposite because everything he wants is about him and only him. The Art of the Deal is getting involved with a sucker who responds to bullying.

It was a rejection of the entire administration and Dems should see this as a signal to become an actual opposition party. On everything. You don't stop the shutdown. You don't approve another appointee. You do nothing at all. The voters saved you, not the other way around. LEARN TO LEAD.

On a call with reporters, DNC chair Ken Martin responds to JD Vance claiming Dems only won big last night because races were in blue states.

"Well that's bullshit. We won in red counties, blue counties, purple counties," Martin says. And it was all "a rejection of Trump."

Meredith Shiner @meredithshiner.com · 1d

this morning, ICE went into a Spanish language immersion daycare and took a teacher from the building in front of screaming and crying kids and parents at dropoff and the daycare had to shut down for the day (near Lane Tech, where they were yesterday). Really hoping today's "theme" is not "daycare."

The DoD’s commissaries, more than anything else, are the best example and, as the military often does show, through a twist of irony, they show that there are often strong verticals to the state taking a direct stake in orchestrating the supply and delivery of an important but low margin service.

There’s some examples of state run grocery stores already being run in the US. The St Paul town government in Kansas took over and runs the St Paul’s supermarket. The US Commissaries that support the US MilItary is another.

NYC has 5 public markets already. You can visit them. Many people already do!

This is a model to build upon and expand. While ensuring that staple grocery items are available using the profits from co-located market rate vendor tenants.

One such market.
