When I saw the original link on bluesky, I didn't have time to look into it, I had assumed it was something like a post where a sponsor had paid meta to show a user a picture of said user in one of their adverts. Ie meta was being paid to whore out your likeness.

> Do you know what an advert's definition is?

according to this: https://www.dictionary.com/browse/advertisement its not.

Look, I don't like meta any more than you do. But this is a service that is provided by them. Its not an advert, meta aren't making money from generating that user's likeness, or any other.

I don't like GenAI, its going to ruin an industry I love, one I wanted to return to. When the bubble pops, its probably going to make me loose my job too. But this isn't an advert.
