It's too late, but you're going to do that anyway

More than half of Facebook users say they're 'very likely' to turn off political ads using the site's new feature. sonam_sheth

If we could turn off politics, that works be great.

A better feature would be for users to have to explicitly opt-in for political ads.

Thank god

YES

Just turn off Facebook

So we turnoffFB

How about taking down all of them?

afraid of loosing your digital cult

I deletedfacebook years ago.

It's official. Zuckerberg has no overall plan or vision. He just decides on the fly to see what works.

Have they considered disabling ads altogether? Bruh..

MarkZuckerberg should have done this long before. It's already too late. Facebook has lost its credibility as a socialmedia platform after it sold user data without consent and interfere in politics and elections.

That doesn’t fix the problem.
