      This has been going on for many months. Only Facebook knows true extent but it's been like this everyday for months. http://www.thedailybeast.com/articles/2016/11/16/48-hours-in-facebook-s-unreality.html …pic.twitter.com/2A659rjOLW

      Another good piece. Facebook/exposure not only normalizes; it nudges. Little bit at a time, but matters at scale. https://shift.newco.co/im-sorry-mr-zuckerberg-but-you-are-wrong-65dbf8513424 …pic.twitter.com/elDVYpNREJ

      Worse, its hidden. I asked my bright students if they knew Facebook's algorithm curated the newsfeed. Only 10% knew. https://shift.newco.co/im-sorry-mr-zuckerberg-but-you-are-wrong-65dbf8513424 …pic.twitter.com/aukr7Fh2EU

      Something else to consider. Suddenly, Facebook can identify "fake news" to cut out of ad $$ (but not from newsfeed.)https://twitter.com/joshtpm/status/798897029401497604 …

      Also, "cracking down" isn't the word we're looking for here—so far, a few minimal steps, no acknowledgement, no transparency.

      can you try the copyright route? Some families had success with that.

          I Creative Commons all of my public photos on Flickr. I've tried several routes with FB and direct with no positive results.
