What’s more, developers tell us that Meta’s motivation behind the API’s shutdown is unclear. On the one hand, it could be that Facebook Groups don’t generate ad revenue and the shutdown of the API will leave developers without a workaround.
No, that’s definitely it, you got it.

I remember saying back in the early and mid-2000s that the world is completely fucked if Big Corp ever figured out the Internet (remember all those cringe commercials and campaigns back then where they tried to meme/go viral/etc?). Turns out, it was true.

That’s with every media. Printing started to share scientific knowledge and ended with advertising flyers. Phones started with contacting relatives and ended with telemarketing. TV ended in reality TV between the ads.

I mean, printing was originally for Bibles as long as we’re getting nostalgic.
