Meta’s Shocking Double Standard: Why Legitimate Legal Ads Disappear While Scam Ads Thrive on Facebook and Instagram!
The difference? They certainly represent massive revenue to Meta, and they are not a threat to Meta’s pocketbook or continued worldwide dominance. Yet.
In a recent Axios article, a Meta spokesperson, addressing legitimate legal ad removals, stated, “We will not allow trial lawyers to profit from our platforms while simultaneously claiming they are harmful.”
But Meta will allow hundreds of thousands of scam ads in violation of its own Terms of Service and representing BILLIONS in revenue (16 billion in revenue alone in 2024). The spokesperson’s justification is flawed. Legitimate legal advertising is NOT unscrupulously targeting teens using sophisticated algorithms intentionally to hook vulnerable children and youth, and exploit their vulnerabilities. These attorneys are opening our eyes to what Meta knew all along – its platforms are flawed. Intentionally so.
