And nothing of value was lost.

Oh no! Anyway…

Meta was never a source of news…

Good riddance!

Good. This law is ridiculous and I’m glad it won’t give the result they intended. Being able to link to things freely is a very basic part of the web, we really shouldn’t mess with that. And Facebook is a ridiculous place to get news from so it may have ancillary benefits as well in terms of maybe slightly improving public discourse and encouraging people onto other platforms with more transparency around their content weighting and data use practices.

Facebook should not be the place to look for news.

Bring it on !

Like no one told this would happen.
