Maybe they use DMs because they hate your ad delivery. Maybe they use stories because you make every effort to push users to it, so that's where the eyeballs are.
Pretty tiresome to position your company as a victim of its users when you have a shocking level of influence over their behavior.
Not to mention how credulous this passage is from a journalistic standpoint.
