A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.
Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

I just don't get what any party gets out of this. The news sites get traffic driven to their websites by the links where they can serve ads and the social media companies benefit from the engagement with the article. Did someone honestly think that Facebook and Google would actually pay for the privilege?
