I'm not sure if this is the case with just me or something really changed got changed behind the scenes, I've been seeing less of these 'sponsored' stories lately since this news created buzz sometime back.
- dcminter 14y agoIf the difference is real (I've not seen it) then perhaps it's a result of more users becoming aware of the option to disable "Pair my social actions with adverts" via settings: http://www.facebook.com/settings?tab=ads§ion=social&view http://www.facebook.com/settings?tab=ads§ion=social&... In my own case I've come to see "likes" as a liability and removed all existing "likes" for commercial organizations or any uncommercial org for which I see these paid-for posts. Hardly the desirable outcome for Facebook or the organizations! I hope my reaction becomes more prevalent.
- paulgb 14y agoI did the same and removed all my likes out of fear of showing up in ads. Whether the ads were misleading is irrelevant; I don't want my friends to associate me with ads.
