      It's funny how out of touch they are.

      To be fair, he also said:

      > The reason, he said, was that the best way to achieve reach in a chronological feed was to post more often, and businesses could afford to post more often than ordinary people.

      But he conveniently omitted that chronological order algorithm would/should apply only to those accounts that users are following, not just having all the crap crammed into their feed.
