Cory Doctorow, enshittification: “finally, they [platforms] abuse those business customers to claw back all the value for themselves”.
That is exactly what is happening here; AI is just an excuse, not the reason.

The American Spring, much like the Arab spring, is finally upon us. How delicious BiBi brought it on all by themselves and their ego.

What protests are you talking about?

Context. Please look at the context.
OP is ultimately about Faecesbook/Meta demanding more from advertisers than it used to, and using “cuz, uh, AI! It’s smurrt!” as justification. I brought enshittification up because FB is clearly on that step of enshittification - after it screwed with the users, now screwing with businesses.
If there was any sort of protest against FB going nuts, it would be when they screwed with the users. If there was any, it failed - because that step of enshittification is already complete.
What you’re talking about (“brrr Israelis chilled brrr”) is at most sideline related.
