I am against business trying to make me agree the price is fair. And the price of having ads displayed on my computer is too high.
Ads are like a donation box, not like a price tag.
Am I being forced to donate?
- fragola 10y ago>Ads are a donation box, not a price tag Well, you're certainly entitled to your own opinion. But realistically, we all consume content that is ad-supported that we might be paying for otherwise. The fact that so many ad-or-pay services exist is proof of this (Youtube with ads, Hulu with ads, etc.) The are both business models. If you don't like the service at the price, don't buy it. Honestly, no one is forcing you and tons of people get on perfectly fine without Facebook (some people would even say they are better off without it).
- elmigranto 10y agoYou say "buy" but I do not see how this applies to Facebook. I do not buy anything, there is no money changing hands, no product offered or received.
- eva1984 10y agoBut ads isn't real donation, no actual money is handled from customer directly to the website. Instead, advertiser pays for it.
