I Can't Believe Facebook Allows This Crap
Haven't been here in a while but I felt this was important enough to report. I'll try to make this short.
Saw a Facebook "ad" that looked like a news story about Peyton Manning losing his $84 million contract because of using a substance that the NFL is going to ban.
Here is the link:
ESPN - The Worldwide Leader in Sports
If you check it out, on first glance it looks like an ESPN news article. But if you then examine the whole page, you'll see that it has nothing to do with ESPN but just a blatant lie to sell this product.
If it was really breaking news it would be somewhere on the Internet. It's not.
I wonder if ESPN knows their name is being associated with this lie.
I wonder if Peyton Manning knows he's being associated with taking a drug that's going to be outlawed by the NFL.
I wonder if Facebook gives a crap that some of their ads are downright borderline illegal or at least immoral.
If I knew where to report this to, I would.
My first clue that this was BS was when, at the end of the article, they tried to give away a free sample of this drug that's supposed to be so dangerous. Then I started checking links and looked at the actual URL that I was taken to and it all fell into place.
Facebook probably doesn't give a crap, but if ESPN and Peyton Manning knew that they were associated with this and brought a suit against Facebook for allowing this garbage to run, maybe they would care.
Anyway, hope you're all enjoying your time here. I've moved on to Gearslutz and KVR as they are closer to my new life. Still miss some of my old friends here. Particularly, I hope KimW is okay. I know he got a new kidney a while ago and hope he's doing well.
Also shout outs to Sal, Thom, Kurt and Miss Terra. Hope you're all well.
Fading back into the sunset.

Raising a child is akin to knowing you're getting fired in 18 years and having to train your replacement without actively sabotaging them.
