I personally frown upon the ads inserted into the news stream, and I found them even more intrusive when they try to "blend" with native posts. But of course it's their right to insert them there. But what I don't like even more is that all those big players seems to not want to introduce paid no-ads accounts - maybe they wouldn't like to extra responsibility of having the paying customers.
- mikeg8 13y agoI agree, I would happily pay an annual fee for ad-free use of Facebook.
- Pxtl 13y agoI hadn't even thought of that. Yeah, I'd buy that. Twitter, too.
- dm8 13y agoOut of curiosity, why do you feel them 'intrusive'? Don't you think they are better since you can completely ignore them by scrolling down rather than taking you hostage to watch 30 second video or interstitial?
- kingnight 13y agoIt removes the intimacy of your feed. Some people may follow brands, but others follow their friends and photographers whom they admire. Interjecting 'tailored content' will degrade the connection people have with the feed they subscribe to.
