Facebook tests fees for out-of-network messaging


Facebook is testing a system that is currently only available to a small amount of people in the U.S which allows messaging others who are not in their friend’s list at a not yet known fee. There has been a lot of complaints that messages got lost in the spam filter when texting to people who weren’t integrated in someone’s network. Currently Facebook only delivers messages from friends or friends of friends. Other messages which facebook deems irrelevant are marked as spam. With a paid system however messages could be considered relevant even without being integrated in someone’s network. This could be the case if a company wants to send you job offers that you have requested.
