Ad free Facebook and Instagram is officially on. I’m trying to stay open minded but honestly it’s too expensive especially with this sneaky account center rule unless you’re in an unfortunate position where you need to spend a lot of time on these platforms.

“Meta declined to comment on whether subscribers’ data would be used for anything other than ads.”
Not answering is an answer.
Yeah the headline is dead wrong. Privacy ≠ ad free.
That said, paying for a service is the one solution to getting rid of ads that I can see working in general. In general I don’t see this as a bad thing.
There’s so little doubt that they’re still using and selling user data no matter what they claim.
