    Meta is earning a fortune on a deluge of fraudulent ads, documents show
    https://www.reuters.com/investigations/meta-is-earning-fortune-deluge-fraudulent-ads-documents-show-2025-11-06/
    Meta internally projected late last year that it would earn about 10% of its overall annual revenue – or $16 billion – from running advertising for scams and banned goods, internal company documents show. A cache of previously unreported documents reviewed by Reuters also shows that the social-media giant for at least three years failed to identify and stop an avalanche of ads that exposed Facebook, Instagram and WhatsApp’s billions of users to fraudulent e-commerce and investment schemes, illegal online casinos, and the sale of banned medical products. On average, one December 2024 document notes, the company shows its platforms’ users an estimated 15 billion “higher risk” scam advertisements – those that show clear signs of being fraudulent – every day. Meta earns about $7 billion in annualized revenue from this category of scam ads each year, another late 2024 document states. Much of the fraud came from marketers acting suspiciously enough to be flagged by Meta’s internal warning systems. But the company only bans advertisers if its automated systems predict the marketers are at least 95% certain to be committing fraud, the documents show. If the company is less certain – but still believes the advertiser is a likely scammer – Meta charges higher ad rates as a penalty, according to the documents. The idea is to dissuade suspect advertisers from placing ads. The documents further note that users who click on scam ads are likely to see more of them because of Meta’s ad-personalization system, which tries to deliver ads based on a user’s interests.

    Body of woman who died in Brampton crash was not found until family reported her missing, police say
    https://www.ctvnews.ca/toronto/local/peel/article/body-of-woman-who-died-in-brampton-crash-was-not-found-until-family-reported-her-missing-police-say/
    The remains of a woman killed in a Brampton collision over the weekend were not discovered until after her family reported her missing hours later, and the vehicle she was in had already been taken to a towing yard, police say. ... “In the hours after the collision, we received reports of a missing 20-year-old woman whose last known location, confirmed through a shared tracking app, was the crash site. Officers simultaneously checked the crash scene and attended the impound yard to determine whether evidence of a passenger existed,” Bell-Morena told CP24 in that aforementioned email. “Officers closely examined the rear passenger compartment of the demolished Honda Civic and located the remains of the deceased woman embedded in the wreckage, at which point, we requested the assistance of BFES for her extrication with the use of specialized equipment.”

    The Anti-Trans Grifters Are Coming For The NWSL
    https://defector.com/the-anti-trans-grifters-are-coming-for-the-nwsl?giftLink=a112cd5420abe1d84b5a750254f30703
    In July, the Guardian reported that the NWSL had quietly allowed its policy on the participation of transgender players, established in 2021, to expire. The scrapped policy used the testosterone levels of transgender players to determine their eligibility to play in the league. In the same article, the Guardian revealed that this lack of an official policy was being eyed by conservative lobbying groups seeking to exclude transgender women from the league entirely. What that story didn’t anticipate, however, was that a player from inside the league would take up the cause. In an Oct. 26 social media post that was republished the next day as an editorial by the New York Post, Angel City benchwarmer Elizabeth Eddy criticized the NWSL’s lack of gender eligibility policy. She suggested the league should adopt standards like requiring players to have ovaries, or to undergo genetic testing. She wrote that players who those policies would exclude should be forced to play in separate divisions and leagues. Eddy, who began her NWSL career in 2015, played a grand total of zero minutes in 2025 and 87 minutes total in the two years prior—the fact that the Post called her an “Angel City FC star” is a level of truth-bending that should cast serious doubt on the integrity of the editorial. Racism, transphobia’s close cousin, is never far behind in situations like this, and the Post gave the game away with the photo it chose to pair with Eddy’s editorial. The article featured a photo of Orlando Pride striker Barbra Banda, a cisgender woman whose status as one of the best players in the world has made her a target for transphobes and racists. She was previously barred from participating in the Africa Cup of Nations for allegedly failing the type of bogus “gender verification” test that Eddy wants implemented in the NWSL. Her agent maintains that she never took such a test.
