From tengrain at Mock Paper Scissors:

…letting advertisers lie to customers on Facebook is super-cool

Even Twitter, sewer firehose that it is, says that political ads designed to mislead have no place on their platform, and because Twitter claims that they do not have the resources to fact check everything, instead they are banning all political ads. Google has announced something similar; even Pinterest has a technical solution to make mis/disinformation impossible to find on their platform if it ever makes it on: they add it to their key words list to block and to make it unsearchable. D’uh!

“Suckers,” Faceberg didn’t say.
