Facebook said it would restrict the "sharing and viewing" of Australian and international news content on its platform in Australia. The announcement comes amid Australian regulators' proposed legislation over tech platforms paying news publishers, which Facebook and Google have staunchly opposed.

It's time for all of us to get off the Facecrook. I deleted my account a few weeks ago. My girlfriend keeps begging me to come back and I say, no way. I can't get her to stop using Zukerburg/CIA's/DARPA's crap.

That entire clusterfuck needs to be burned to the ground.

If there are mass fatalities, meh, c'est la guerre.

It is hard to pretend I care about the upside down people, facebook or the "news" being shared there. I deleted my facebook in November of 2016 when it became clear to me that Trump's win would be a 24/7 source of contention driving everybody I knew absolutely batshit crazy either in support or opposition.

It is amazing, since Facebook banned news I get out more.

I would mow my backyard but I am pretty sure if I did I would find a Japanese soldier still fighting World War II.
