They didn't publish any button guidelines so it's a modified Subscribe button. I would think they'd be more for it as they're getting more eCommerce data. The post states this: Just to be clear, we were approved by Facebook to use these Open Graph actions but this is not a “partnership” with Facebook.

Unfortunately it's a bit difficult to get in contact with FB.

Yeah, look, best of luck to you and we're in a similar space. I'm all for social commerce, I just think possibly the boundaries of whats within their intended scope are being pushed here.

I don't want to get into it too much because we'll ultimately see, but I'm sure if I made a "Don't like" button - they'd kick my ass. I get the feeling OpenGraph was intended for a service based business, i.e. Geoff just watched [x] on Netflix.

Best of luck tho.

I think it's a little different because "Own" is an actual approved action while "Don't like" isn't. Can you shoot me an email (just use our contact form)? Would love to learn more.

Thanks Geoff!
