I encourage all other investors who care about our future to do the same. #unfriendfacebook” According to a report by The Fortune, the actor known for his comic roles, before removing his account from Facebook, had put a caricature of Mark Zuckerberg along with a “thumbs down” with an altered name of Facebook. His reaction comes in the wake of Russia-linked ads which were shared on the platform during the US presidential elections in 2016.

A previous **report**  said that Facebook had allowed 80,000 posts related to Russia to be available on their platform. These ads are supposed to have allegedly swayed the US presidential elections in 2016. This comes after Facebook is trying to bring a major overhaul to its NewsFeed, especially when there is a decrease in user-engagement. It is trying to focus on people and their interaction with their loved ones on the social media platform. The #unfriendfacebook hashtag is getting a lot of traction on Twitter as we speak.
