Facebook/Meta literally has an invitation-only program that pays out a few billion a year to select content creators. They are even paying channels that actually break some of their policies, yet they do nothing about them. When asked about those instances, it's never a direct response to that instance--it's always a quick finger-point to the "rules" they supposedly keep and right back to business as usual. Mark Zuckerberg is a shit-onion. Layer after layer, the stink somehow still worsens as each one gets peeled off.

"We have clear policies in place which anyone using our monetisation tools must comply with.

"When Content Monetisation Pages violate our Community Standards, we apply penalties such as temporarily or permanently disabling their ability to earn on our platforms.

"Creators or publishers who repeatedly breach these policies will be removed from our platforms."
