Facebook: The Great Victory
February 25, 2021
“Facebook Says It Will Pay News Industry $1 Billion over 3 Years” makes clear the magnitude of Facebook’s “victory” over a mere nation state. The “real” news report reveals:
Facebook announced Wednesday it plans to invest $1 billion to “support the news industry” over the next three years and admits it “erred on the side of over-enforcement” by banning news links in Australia.
The admission does nothing to diminish the greatness of Facebook and its decision to unfriend or non-like Australia. A member of the Five Eyes, Australia did not reference Facebook’s alleged “bully boy” behavior. The country’s government was delighted to modify its laws in order to accommodate the digital nation state’s wishes.
Beyond Search’s art unit created the “new” flag for the mere nation state of Australia. Here it is:
An Australian official revealed:
The Morrison Government’s world-leading news media bargaining code has just passed the Parliament. This is a significant milestone.
Beyond Search has learned that changes to the school curricula, including replacing existing non-Facebook flags has begun immediately.
Facebook’s diplomatic skill, its management team’s acumen, and the incredible personal warmth of Mr. Zuckerberg (affectionately known as the Zuck) appear to have forced a mere nation state to reverse course.
Australia is no longer “unfriended” by the digital power house.
