https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.cnb...geted-ads.html

On numerous devices I have been trying to remove all ads from my Facebook and every day new ones and old ones pop up. After believing all settings show that I don’t want any adds, there are unknown new ads
Today another 411 ads popped up in settings.

From AAA ads in cities I have never been to companies I never even heard off

I also now found that Facebook removed a post from my page that was a news article of a NFL player who burned the American flag in the locker room and it was removed but facebook as it was considered hate speech.

So burning a flag in a locker room is allowed but posting a news article from one of the major news papers is hate speech according to Facebook.

On another website advise was given to never use your own phone number and email for rewards you can get and from now on I will use a fake phone number and hardly ever used email to sign up to get discounts.

Great advise and I thank that Website for the information.

What a new world we bring up our kids into..,

Zuckerberg and his people are sick to even think this is ok!

Zuckerberg had mentioned to run for office and what would that office be like?

24/7 spying on everyone....liberals are really sick to think this is ok!

Someone starts a website and runs ads to pay for it and make some money? The horrors.

You know, I rarely get on Facebook but when I do I don't even notice the ads.

Huh, interesting. Because I have hardly any ads showing on my newsfeed & I've never had any content deleted. Maybe you're doing it wrong.

I've never had a facebook account and probably never will. I'm feeling pretty smug about that these days

The article about the player burning the flag in the locker room was fake news. It never happened and was a bad photoshop job as well.

So what we are learning is that Facebook was running a flea market of our personal data to the highest bidders and disguising it as a "Social Network" yes, just like the movie.

And now they want US to pay? OK....
