Facebook Marketplace is another hellhole that Meta could not care less to regulate. Beyond the fact that virtually all commerce platforms have some mechanism to prevent scams, which of course Facebook completely omits, the sheer amount of ilegal products/services sold there is terrifying.

Regarding the fact that “Meta does not make money from Marketplace itself”, this could be true at face value, nonetheless there is a significant amount of users on Facebook only for this feature in particular. In turns this represents more customers to serve ads to and profit from them.
