LINK Facebook pulled news in Australia. Here's why that matters everywhere - CNET

I say good. Maybe people will try getting news from sources other than Lord Zuckerberg. I have never been anywhere near Facebook, yet somehow I manage to stay informed. Indeed I manage to stay informed because in part I have always avoided Facebook.

That is wild. Don't completely understand it but could see how they wouldn't want to pay news organizations, if that's the issue.

In AU, "news" is all about Murdoch. 😛

Lucky Australians -- Why should Facebook pay to give a media company a customer?

Why should anyone get their (fake) 'news' from social media ?

So you just shared a news link. If the owner of this site had to pay CNET a royalty for you sharing that link and every other link, they'd be no agnostic.com

@David1955 No I'm not in favor of techno bullying.

that's what I thought it meant.
