Comment on Meta is earning a fortune on a deluge of fraudulent ads

Comments

Meta projected 10% of its 2024 revenue would come from ads for scams and banned goods, documents seen by Reuters show. And the social media giant internally estimates that its platforms show users 15 billion scam ads a day. Among its responses to suspected rogue marketers: charging them a premium for ads – and issuing reports on ’Scammiest Scammers.’

Call me cynical if you will, but only 10% seems to be a low-ball estimate to me.
