npub1yy2f70sw4mdqcx6a4ggxt6df46e4cyseyeycxd5sw6jmt0ll60ns6y7vpm (npub1yy2…7vpm) A decade ago, I created an author page on FB having just published a book of poetry (nothing since). The next day, I had 200 followers and a message from FB telling me I could gain even more followers if I purchased ads.
I never purchased those ads.
None of those 200 followers ever interacted with me or liked anything.
FB was very careful to never claim ownership of those followers, but it sure was suspicious. That was one of my reasons for leaving. Nothing is what it seems on FB.
