The North Face pauses paid advertising on Facebook, first major brand
2020-06-21
[Jpost] Business Insider reported that The North Face will also be halting advertising on Instagram as well, owned by Facebook, according to a direct statement.

The North Face will no longer be running paid advertisements on Facebook, the clothing company announced on Friday.

The decision surrounds several United States civil rights groups calling upon some of the world's largest companies to pause advertising on Facebook starting in July, saying the social network is not doing enough to stop hate speech on its platforms.

#6  Yes. Fartbook will continue to shrink as millennials continue to not have kids for gran to catch up with. As attention spans move towards zero you can tell who's a derp by how much they spend on their podcasting microphone.

#2  Once you pander to the mob (as they have done for years now), you have no defense when the mob comes for you.

#1  Outlaw all digital advertising. If these corporations are sincere about doing social good let them redirect that money to worthy causes. Let fartbook and sh*tter addicts pay directly for their fixes. Let gurgle die.
