If you really think about it, all of the social media platforms make money from all of the people who use their platforms. Users dive in thinking they're on the next greatest thing, all while being suckered there so the platforms can earn billions off of them. Mark Zuckerberg, for example, made $41 billion last year from advertising. How would you feel about sharing in that?
We are using their platform without paying anything. Most people think it is free, but technically it is actually not free at all. We have to see advertisements and this is where we are indirectly paying facebook. Advertisements are the source of revenue for them and it is impossible for them to share it with us since the number of users is actually were high.
