Facebook To Permit Advertisers To Republish User Posts

In another effort to "monetize" its website, Facebook will allow advertisers to republish user posts on a user's friends pages. No consent or ability to decline this feature will be permitted under current conditions.

Does this mean a movie preference, for example, will be followed by a movie ad? Or publicity for the Oscars?

The story appeared in Yahoo, but is an original AP article.

Do you have an opinion on this topic? You're welcome to share it here. No promises about an advertising-free comment, though.
