    $14 a month is insanely. maybe 1 dollar a month is reasonable. given they’ll still be working their ads into 80% of the bullshit that is Facebook feeds.

      Damn, I was reading this and my head was correcting it to $14/mo for an ad-free experience, and even that was ridiculous.

      $14/mo for “ads, but we pinky swear that we won’t use the data we’re still definitely collecting on you to prepare your ads” is just a joke.

      How about instead, Meta pays out $14/mo per user, for the data they’re collecting?
