5. Offered to promote personal posts -- for a $7 fee

In short: Users in the U.S. can promote their personal posts for a $7 per-post fee. "When you promote a post it is placed higher in the news feed so your friends and subscribers are more likely to notice it," Facebook wrote in a blog post. The reaction: "$7 to promote you posts? There's a Zucker born every minute," wrote sapient69.

I believe that what I see on MY newsfeed should be what I myself wish to see -- not what someone else thinks I need."
