Hoax: bypass the Facebook "algorithm"

If you see a post on stating “ about bypassing FB”, don't pay attention, it's a hoax it will pass.

No, Facebook did not create a new algorithm that "selects a few people (about 25) who can read your posts", at least not from what we have heard.

The last time we heard this was another hoax circulating in February last year, and he mentioned it Snopes. This particular hoax stated that a young Facebook allowed on to be shown to only 26 of your friends.

The new prank released on Facebook says:

Free translation:

Thanks for the FB bypass tips - FUN! I see all the news feed again. I see posts from people I have not seen for years.
How to make a bypass on the FB system that displays fewer posts in the news feed.
Their new algorithm selects a few friends – around 25 – who can read the posts. So tap your finger anywhere on this post and “copy.” will appear. Click on "copy". Go to and make a new post. Press your finger anywhere in the post area and click “Paste.” This will bypass the system. Hi new and old friends!

Naturally, the above method will have no effect except we will see it appearing very often in the news feed, since every beginner can believe that Facebook has created such an algorithm and that he can cheat him with just one post.

If you see the above post, the best you can do is skip it, and maybe warn your friends before it starts spreading.
