Facebook Bans Mentioning Other Social Platforms in Apps (#11)
- randomanonymous 15y agoWhat's so surprising about that? It's common sense that they'd do it. Apple does the same thing concerning android apps, and Android does the same thing with apple apps. Online games do the same thing with other online sites and so on. Nothing new, nothing surprising, and nothing wrong it it.
- ecaron 15y agoCould you post some links regarding Android doing the same thing with Apple? I can't find any examples of anything that compares to a ban of this scope.
- NeilCJames 15y agoThe closest thing in the Android Market terms is this: "You may not use the Market to distribute or make available any Product whose primary purpose is to facilitate the distribution of Products outside of the Market." So, no, there is nothing that compares to the Facebook policy on Android.
- WadeWilliams 15y agoSmart! If you link to Google Plus, we'll Ban Your Ap! That way you can just build your ap into Google Plus. This strategy should work well long term. sarcasm
- dfxm12 15y ago"Competing social platform" is pretty broad. Would this give Facebook grounds to remove an app because it promotes SMS messaging, email, delivering ads, storing photos somewhere, etc? Caveat emptor.
