This is something I thought about too. The dilemma for Facebook and Twitter to offer paid service is interesting Wealthy eyeballs worth more (a lot). Wealthy people most likely to pay to not see ads. A super high price to justify not showing ads to wealthy people will make the whole offering moot. I don't have the numbers but if it's anything like the rest of the economy, top 10% is probably spending something like 60% of total spent. So removing the top 10% from the targetable population for ads can be a huge hit to ad revenues.
