How Facebook's bait-and-switch dupes users
Facebook may become dominant enough that its actions vex regulators, then it may be forced to change what it highlights in news feeds. Or, maybe the people who use the service will grow so tired of what seems like another bait-and-switch that they will decide to stop sharing, even if it seems to be free.
bait-and-switchに注目してみます。Oxford Dictionaries Onlineで調べてみると ‘the action (generally illegal) of advertising goods which are an apparent bargain, with the intention of substituting inferior or more expensive goods’と定義されていました。手持ちの辞書でも調べてみると、「（（米））おとり商法」（『ジーニアス英和辞典 第３版』大修館）とありました。(Shou-VR*)
