Facebook to sell access to your inbox for a dollar at a time
Facebook has launched a pilot scheme selling strangers access to users' inboxes.

The social networking website has introduced a fee, believed to be $1, to guarantee that messages are routed to a recipient's 'inbox' and not their 'other' folder, where they are likely to be ignored.

Facebook has billed it as giving users the chance to hear from people they do not know but who have an 'important' message for them. It argues the fee will actually cut down on the amount of unwanted messages.

Can one get access to Zuckerberg's inbox? That might be fun. Spam the shit out of the fucker. See how he likes it. So glad I opted out of that shit a while back.

I hope they fuck themselves over.

2 things will happen.

One will be facebook makes more of a financial killing at the expense of pissing their userbase off

and

Two

Spam and garbage will increase to the point where people will just leave. After all, what would facebook care about the content of their "advertisers" mailings.

Re: Facebook to sell access to your inbox for a dollar at a time
Why people click "like" on facebook pages? It's a total waste of time.

I limit my fb activity to the minimum. Always keep my page invisible to strangers. I only have people I know in the real world listed and that is also kept to a limit.

Also I never ever put any personal information on it.

Been without Facebook for the last 6 months or so now, it's such a great feeling!

Glad I got out when I did :D esp. considering Zucker owns Instagram and FB Pics are uploaded through Instagram and he has the copyrights and permission to sell them.

Oh and the fact he's a datamining databasing data stealing whore.

Re: Facebook to sell access to your inbox for a dollar at a time
There is a new feature or warning text that says, linking tagged photos that MAY look like you. So its now experimenting and buildng the databse. Ironic the brand is called Facebook. The software and data will merge with hand held devices like a mobile phone. Imagine trying to give a fake name to police. Take a photo and let the data do the rest. Whats more worrying is with the Elite, the future will be a sci-fi movie . Nowhere to run, keep ya head down in the concentration camps. Its blatantly going that way
