> but it's not a traditional publisher either Then maybe it shouldn't behave like one. FB actively selects articles to show on your feed - via algorithm, instead via human, but the effect is the same. That is a choice they could easily undo. It is also a choice a large number of people would be happy to see. ("I just want my feed ordered by date, no filtering" is a very common request). The only reason that doesn't happen is that the enragement metrics go up if you select what you present to people. So FB is deliberately choosing articles to show you, and it is making that selection for monetary gain. How is that not a publisher? |
