Bots read. Advertisers pay.

@w7voa $16B in revenue would put the scam money alone in the middle of the Fortune 500
@w7voa HAHAHAHAHA
"If the company is less certain – but still believes the advertiser is a likely scammer – Meta charges higher ad rates as a penalty, according to the documents. The idea is to dissuade suspect advertisers from placing ads."
So if they suspect a scam they just want a bigger cut from the scam. Awesome.
