Facebook made approximately $30 (USD) per user in advertising revenue last year. I think the bigger issue (IMHO) is that the people who are prepared to pay to not be profiled are the people who are the most valuable to advertise to. i.e. they are worth way more than $30 in revenue per year.
- thatguy0900 6y agoOn the other hand, the people willing to pay to not be profiled are probably already using adblockers and piholes everywhere they can, no?
- Nextgrid 6y agoFacebook is relatively immune to ad blockers as most Facebook, WhatsApp & Instagram usage is mobile (and why Instagram's web version is very bare-bones and lacks critical functionality).
- thatguy0900 6y agoThat's fair. I'm still using Firefox mobile with adblocking, so I didn't consider that.
