zoesam93 LisaVisentin KnottMatthew That was highly predictable

zoesam93 LisaVisentin KnottMatthew You mad bro?

zoesam93 LisaVisentin KnottMatthew I’m quite glad the news has gone from Facebook. It’s back to what it should be. Complaints about shit humans and photos by insecure people.

zoesam93 LisaVisentin KnottMatthew It was nice being on Facebook with out all your clickbait fear mongering headlines enticing fuckwits to comment. I hope its permanent

zoesam93 LisaVisentin KnottMatthew Big tech are just circling back to cancel their cheer squad. Cancel-culture at its finished

zoesam93 LisaVisentin KnottMatthew Every country needs to block ‘Chinese exposed’ social media platforms at least one month before elections.

zoesam93 LisaVisentin KnottMatthew Facebook and Google make millions but won't share the profits nor pay proper tax . facebooknewsban Is a prime example of the bullying tactic they employ. Spend more money to make the codes to make it fair don't just walk away, stealing our data and say we won't do it right FU

zoesam93 LisaVisentin KnottMatthew Genius move from Facebook. If you really believed they are stealing from you then this will prove if you’re right or not… can’t wait to see the traffic numbers..

zoesam93 LisaVisentin KnottMatthew Well they would say that wouldn’t they. Derh.

zoesam93 LisaVisentin KnottMatthew If you created news content that people are prepared to pay for direct from the source then where’s the problem. Your reliance on third party platforms to generate readers, subscribers, clicks & views clearly shows your decline in news legitimacy and value.

zoesam93 LisaVisentin KnottMatthew Less fake news being shared at least.

zoesam93 LisaVisentin KnottMatthew Unreasonable behaviour is what is happening to IBelieveBrittany Morrison can not get away with Gaslighting her The public won’t allow it

zoesam93 LisaVisentin KnottMatthew 'unreasonable behaviour' is for media companies to seek yet another rent

zoesam93 LisaVisentin KnottMatthew Ah, so the MEDIA companies don't like the fact that Facebook won't distribute their content for free. Thanks for letting us all know what this really is all about.

zoesam93 LisaVisentin KnottMatthew How bout slamming the Shitshow (hiding behind the ACCC) for such a stupid proposal? You use Facebook free of charge for eye traffic, they don't force you. You exploit them, they exploit you for advertising $$. You can leave, but you don't, cause ur free avenue to traffic goes.

zoesam93 LisaVisentin KnottMatthew Media companies have earned millions from these platforms. They just woke up and decided to be more greedy. It’s corporates fight. So don’t care. Journalist earn millions anyway

zoesam93 LisaVisentin KnottMatthew So News Corp (and the LNP govt) wants Google to pay for their searched content.. and FB has taken measures to stop this content being share - getting 'slammed' for it? You guys are such a bunch of whiney baby hypocrites. No wonder why people don't like doing business here.

zoesam93 LisaVisentin KnottMatthew Propagandists on suicide watch. Auspol

zoesam93 LisaVisentin KnottMatthew 🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂

zoesam93 LisaVisentin KnottMatthew LOL went to read this and was told I have reached my free limit. trying to read an article on limiting access to media only to have my access to media limited by the very media I was trying to access. 😅 Oh the irony!

zoesam93 LisaVisentin KnottMatthew posting links to articles on free social media sites 🤔

zoesam93 LisaVisentin KnottMatthew YOU BROUGHT THIS ON YOURSELF! Next you will be asking other web sites to pay for links. Where does this end when you can put a price on Sharing Information? Will I have to pay Harvey Norman for Tweeting about him? - You have fundamentally broken the internet.

zoesam93 LisaVisentin KnottMatthew Our media orgs are rent seekers. The customer gets to choose to buy or not buy; including Facebook.

zoesam93 LisaVisentin KnottMatthew In the middle of a pandemic. What gems. Send them packing. Look at their tax free income. How much do they make from Instagram?

zoesam93 LisaVisentin KnottMatthew Why don't you start voluntarily delivering newspapers to every house and then try to force them to pay....oh that's right it would be called extortion

zoesam93 LisaVisentin KnottMatthew GET STUFFED SMH I hate Zuckerberg & Facebook but TAXING any person or org for sharing links is an attack on the fundamentals of Free Speech. Yes 'Journalism' is broken but YOUR media code is not the Fix, it's a power grab. It's Crony Capitalism 👇

zoesam93 LisaVisentin KnottMatthew So you force news onto facebook, then want to force facebook to pay, and then claim facebook are being unreasonable for not paying for something didn't ask for....yeah right.

zoesam93 LisaVisentin KnottMatthew Sooooooo Sad, To Bad, Never Mind.......Anyhow Have a cup of tough titties.

zoesam93 LisaVisentin KnottMatthew

zoesam93 LisaVisentin KnottMatthew So Nine Entertainment wants Facebook to pay them for content that Facebook neither requested or sought to publish. What ever happened to the Liberal belief in an absolute free market?

zoesam93 LisaVisentin KnottMatthew Yes that was the CEO of Nine that said it was unreasonable behaviour. Your owner. The unreasonable behaviour is saying 'pay us or we won't use your site anymore' and then complaining when you're kicked off. 😂🤣

zoesam93 LisaVisentin KnottMatthew you would say that wouldnt you ? where is your editorial impartiality SMH you are just as stacked while murdoch has destroyed any hope of media in this country its utter hypocrisy
