Tsu.co, the social network that promises to pay users - and is vetoed Facebook




If you have a Facebook account, try this: write tsu.co in your timeline. It does not work, right? And if you try to share the site www.tsu.co also will not be possible.

Tsu.co is a small social network created in 2013 to which you can only join if you receive an invitation.

Its main feature is that it pays its users, sharing with them part of the profits come from ads.

The company behind the site gets 10% of this income; the remaining 90% are split, half goes to the owner of the page that led the ad and the other is passed to the "family tree" user - the pyramid of people that led to the invitation to the user to join the network, resembling a model of pyramidal business.

The strategy is very different from Facebook, which is 100% of the proceeds.
But why tsu.co is such a problem for the social network of Zuckerberg? Why is not allowed not even mention it?
The official response from Facebook is that "it encourages behavior that generates a lot of spam." It says still be detected users who have created profiles on Facebook just to talk the Tsu.co and invite other friends to migrate to that network.

"We do not allow developers to encourage the exchange of contents, as this practice encourages spam and creates a bad browsing experience for Facebook users," said a network spokesman for the Mashable site. "Therefore, we request that all pages and applications that integrate Facebook to follow the policies of our platform."

However, one suspects that it is a Facebook strategy to veto a potential competitor.

The founder of Tsu.co, Sebastian Sobczak, complains about the situation. "You can write all kinds of crap site that let you publish your post, but we do not exist. We are persona non grata."
