@campuscodi reference for Meta scam ads revenue: https://pluralistic.net/2025/11/08/faecebook/#too-big-to-care

@campuscodi indeed horrific. Meta even admits that 10% of its global revenue comes from fraud and scam ads.

A small correction, they write: " 14.5 million ads running on Meta platforms across the EU and UK, representing more than 10.7 billion impressions. Nearly one in three of those ads (30.99%) pointed to a scam, phishing or malware link. In total, scam ads generated more than 300 million impressions"

So one in three ads CREATED was classified as scam. But "only" 2.8% of ads SHOWN was scam.
