facebook suing maxbounty?

hahah, it's so funny a network is getting sued by facebook. Let's make jokes on here and put up popcorn gif's and laugh when they all get sued.

Maybe when facebook puts them all out of business we can lol so hard with our popcorn gifs and no fucking offers to run.

Ohh wait maybe we'll still be able to run with facebook CPA


(insert popcorn gif here)
 


i dunno....but say maxbounty does lose and has to pay...you think they wont go after any pubs that that broke the T/C...they know exact how much $$$ everyone made.

just a thought.

1. MaxBounty can't lose.

2. If they started targeting pubs and declaring breaking the terms and conditions months after they already paid them (when it was cool brah), they'd be the laughing stock of the industry and nobody would ever run traffic with them again.

I'd worry it's going to be the other way around, and pubs will be subpoenad and put under pressure to confirm (or deny) MB's involvement/knowledge of their actions.

This could all wind down to a sleezy AM over there possibly knowing what was going on, wanting his commission, and not notifying the powers that be as well...
 
This is basically free money for facebook. If anything it affected the users, and facebook gets paid for it.

yeah I had a similar thought, could be that somebody at MaxBounty was actually helping affiliates promote stuff via fb spam.. who knows..

Oh yea, they can't lose. I forgot that the affiliate marketing world is an alternate reality untouchable by silly laws and business ethics legal issues. Becasue it is logical to a 19 year old internet mogul that a network providing assets to a contracted agent/reseller shouldn't have to be liable for that agent/resellers illegal actions or fraudulent business practices makes it somehow true.

The "welcome to the interwebs" excuse won't work this time around.

Actually they now LOVE Canada , since they can come here and enforce default judgements for one billion dollars against a single person, with very little effort at all. What a great country! Private American corporations get carte blanche here in the land of the free!

STFU!! You spammed, you got caught, and now your crying like a bitch about it.

It's not like you have 873 Million to pay anyway. Do like any other reputable company would do, and file Bankruptcy on their ass.
 
Bullshit. If facebook isn't happy with it, don't allow it to happen.

Ban everyone involved from facebook forever if they want, but a friggin lawsuit?

It's not like Facebook needs the money from the lawsuit.
 
Well, I see that a Max Bounty affiliate has been using FB spam-style promotional methods since at least August, and their latest one hit today. If a network knows about FB affiliate spam and doesn't act on it, does that then make them liable and complicit?
