You’ve got the just of it. Their argument is that meta benefits as the post w/ the the link and preview is content they use in their feed to keep users engaged. Presumably in said feed they’d also insert ads.
This would also apply to any user posting a link to an article, not just the news agencies.
Ahh can’t believe I missed that it wasn’t enacted yet - thanks!
If I read correctly, they’re just complying. If they don’t want to pay, they need to filter out the content. It’s not really retaliation, but following the law

My only advice is to take pictures/selfies with them, and the tag. Sleep on it, and scroll through the pictures the next day.
Make sure to take a picture of the tag, finding the exact frame without it can be a PITA.
This also lets you shop around a bit

I would agree, this was my first thought.
Though if the product is sufficiently defined, and bounded, it might make sense. Think support line for a fridge, oven, or other less-open products. Unbounded spaces like general purpose computer support will initially struggle while documentation is built up.
What’s with all the downvotes?
Saw a few threads get blasted, and a de-federation post - did I miss the drama?
Man fuck this guy, disowned and straight to jail
