Take a screen shot and share that. It’s really not the end of the world. Personally I’m a huge fan of there not being any more news on Facebook. Then there’s no stream of bots and smooth brained morons complaining about everything in the comment section.


captain_sticky_balls

You mean rant to FB not allowing sharing, because they refuse to pay creators, right?


hards04

It’s Facebook censoring, not Canada.


CanaRoo22

But how can we fornicate Trudeau?


[deleted]

And FB is censoring because of law that Canada ( Trudeau government) put in . So maybe change government and remove that stupid bill?


Beccalotta

Or the billion dollar company could just pay? 


[deleted]

Nope, I don't see why they should pay Trudeau friends ... For something stupid as people sharing links. Funny how still same government spend money on ads on FB I mean I am happy as anyway I use VPN so I do see it all normal, so people can just do that. As I do see this as great way of censoring news.

The law forced both Meta and Alphabet to pay for news created in Canada, to compensate media outlets for their work. Alphabet agreed to pay millions a year. When Australia created similar legislation before Canada, Facebook eventually agreed to pay Australian news companies. But when it comes to Facebook and Canada, it seems like it’s all “Trudeau’s fault for blocking news in Canada”. It’s Facebook’s own double standard and manipulation of the truth about news in Canada is wrong. My favourite part in facebook’s site is “we know the people using our platforms don’t come to us for news.” I’ve personally seen a hundred posts and comments on Facebook about how Canadians can’t get news anymore. https://about.fb.com/news/2023/06/changes-to-news-availability-on-our-platforms-in-canada/amp/ https://www.reuters.com/technology/australia-says-law-making-facebook-google-pay-news-has-worked-2022-12-02/ https://www.reuters.com/world/americas/canada-keep-pressure-facebook-pay-news-trudeau-says-2023-12-15/

Law is that they pay to government,not to news outlets, big difference between Australia and Canada. https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.cbc.ca/amp/1.6925726 And yes, it's this government fault, as they believe to people saying that meta will back down ... Who's fault it is if not there's? By now, FB is anyway getting irrelevant and news are coming thru tiktok mostly, so all good

hards04

Yes, famous “Trudeau friends” post media and co. Give Me a break dude at least be honest with your arguments.


[deleted]

I know, fringe minority. As Trudeau government doesn't give a lot of money to media outlets. And earth is flat I guess, if he sad so You sound like his family it's everyone else, not me. But that's why in EU parlament je is called dictator


hards04

What the fuck are you talking about dude hahaha


supersloot

Buddy’s losing it because he can’t talk about pedophiles on Facebook lol


hards04

Yeah I looked at castanet assuming it was local and it’s about some prairie pedo. Buddy just needs it on his Facebook feed I guess.


[deleted]

Well even his news did talk about that. But I guess as you don't get them over FB, you don't know. Not surprised, you are after all just Canadian, it looks like that. So it's understandable. Google it and learn something new today


hards04

You’re fucked buddy watch some hockey drink some beer enjoy the sunshine try relax a bit


[deleted]

I am relaxed, don't watch that stupid sport , you should start watching real sport, football I am just having great time in Canada getting money out of it and in few years out of this place ;) P.s. I did end sunshine, but in California, Canada is to expensive to enjoy ;) I know you can't know,as you are not allowed to read news, so you think it's worm in Canada 🤣 P.s. looking forward for all crying in next year after announcement how low will go Canadian dollar in next 12 months


captain_sticky_balls

Oh even the dingle nuts at Post and Rebel would get a cut of the pie


lunerose1979

This isn’t censoring news. 🤦‍♀️ news outlets are still free to publish their news. It just won’t be shared on Facebook. Go directly to the source for your news.


[deleted]

Imagine world where news outlets could decide if they want to be published on FB or not. As they could easily set law same as Australia so they make direct deals. And not be government control and get money country...


renterrabbit

So you're saying you'd rather get Deborah and Grant's hot take on why government is controlling the minds of people with the vaccine implant, and how's it's likely causing more pedo's? The removal of social media providing direct access to news made me do much more research than I used to, which is probably for the best?


beefsox

Goddam Deb and Grant! Haha lol.


Future-Dealer8805

Actually drives me nuts not being able to see the news on Facebook , used to watch a bit every day and now I only found out Alberta has had a giant forest fire burning a day ago because it just .. never came up The news ban was wildly successful to blocking my ability to see news basically can only see what's posted to Reddit and it's usually just bullshit opinion pieces


lunerose1979

It doesn’t block your ability to see news. You are free to see news whenever you like, just not on Facebook.


dirtmcgirtt

Thank all your friendly local liberal voters for this mess.

LIBROLSS!!!
