time to buy more FB shares
when a company leaves the headlines it's time to sell.

and long as laws, rules, regulation supports it many people/corporation will always choose profits over ethics and its not a broad generalization but a natural instinct in my opinion. And you can also buy prestige just by throwing cents in name of philanthropy right?
I hate it but this is how natures works and its too cruel.
Many is a key word here. Many will, but many will not. And how many do is definitely a function of culture. As shown by the big difference in attitude to this question between the US and Europe.
It’s the role of government to curtail greed and industry actions. The current climate is caused by a a failure of government to step in and intervene, not by the industry caring about profit above all else.
You say this as though there aren't any downsides to greed.

No, it's both. Full stop.
And btw this forum is hosted by one of the most prominent venture capitalist firms in Silicon Valley which funds thousands of (promising) capitalists.
That's what America is about, greed, the pursuit of happiness, whatever you call it, everything else is noise.
The pursuit of happiness is not greed. What qualifies as 'happiness' is entirely up to each individual, and for many people that doesn't include being greedy.
Greed and free markets make for a healthy society.
As a counter-example see what happened with the Soviet Union, I can tell you first hand that didn’t work very well. Demonizing "bourjois" values of private property and prosperity, while fetishizing the “common good” and all-controlling government made the entire society very unhappy (except for a few fat bureaucrats) and led to its eventual collapse.
> "Greed... captures the essence of the evolutionary spirit..."
But see, we don't want the evolutionary spirit. We want our kids to be able to play in the park without worrying about the survival of the fittest. We want cures for diseases. We want social safety nets. We want to live in a civilization, not in a "state of nature"; we want to be humans, not animals.
>No, it's both. Full stop.
disagree. it's the job of government to add legislation. not having rules, then acting surprised when things don't go the way you want is asinine. if you want people to act in a particular way, spell it out. Don't act like it's implied and be outraged when people don't abide by your imaginary rules.
We absolutely are in the "current climate" because the industry cared about profit above all else, because they could.
Are our moral goals no longer about improving and setting a higher bar for how we conduct ourselves? Have we succumbed to material wants and ego at the cost of decency? Goodness gracious.
It's the role of the government to curtail murder, but that doesn't resolve me of personal responsibility.
I spent like at least 60% of my clients money on FB (before CTV scaled). Now CTV is eating more budget AND I'm really feeling the iOS changes.
I think the ad market will sort it self and value out but this month has been bad and all over the place. For instance targeting small non-profit donor lists isn't as effective but for some reason I'm having some success just targeting everyone over 45 (a non-profit ask, prob won't work as well for a Democratic ask).
I also see a ton of tik tok videos reposted with logo and everything on IG.
Still a bull but I am concerned and unless they get a new platform or immersive reality/ar takes off I don't think there is room for huge exponential growth anymore. Significant incremental 100% though IMHO.
But who am I opinion doesn't matter, my ad buying experience is only one tiny anecdote. I'm small in both spend and my investments - only recently became better at saving vs spending. Though my dad put in more than I could a bit after IPO and has bumped his retirement considerable
Yes, that's what reels is for, reposting content you made in the tiktok editor.
(So few people understand that that's an important part of the success of tiktok, as is its radically different suggestion algorithms)
