Re: A very open thank you.

 

I don't think Facebook would be interested in people's money (directly) - I think they'd be much more interested in a constant advertising stream and access to your data.  Though in UT this is nicely sandboxed, so they'd only get what data you used via the app, rather than having carte-blanche to everything that's set up in the security permissions, as happens with iOS and Android (so I think this would be a _lot_ less attractive to them).

 Why don't we start
 campaign to get funds to pay facebook to port the app 
 ?Since we paid for it, ads would'nt be a
 problem. If messenger for ubuntu 
 was a paid
 app,I would paid for it. Facebook doesn't know that.
 People 
 could pay to have a Facebook
 'premium' without ads. Anyone have Zuckerber 
 phone number? He should know this.
