Seems like a surprisingly lazy political play from Facebook.
- sigzero 6y agoExactly. I actually do not believe FB on this.

- polotics 6y agoDo you mean to say Apple is not taking 30% and Apple is not admitting this is an unacceptably high fee by trying to prevent FB from informing its users about it?
- kfichter 6y agoNot that I agree with Apple, just feels like a weak PR campaign.
- pandler 6y agoAgreed. With the very little context from the source article (admittedly), it feels like piling on to the whole Epic controversy.
- robjan 6y agoAs a community we don't have to resort to automatically criticising Facebook even when they are morally in the right
- olliej 6y agoHow big is each FB update? I recall they used to be hundreds of mbs, multiple times a week, times a hundred million or whatever users. I don't think that's free.
- asdfasgasdgasdg 6y agoEdge caches aren't free to run, it's true. But at Apple's scale, they are not a significant expense either. It's important to understand that Apple does not pay the same retail bandwidth costs that your mvp web app does on AWS.
