Facebook will measure Likes by pressure

With the advent of pressure sensitive touch screens, many companies, such as Facebook, are developing features to take advantage of it. The leader of social networks will measure in this way how much you like something, by the pressure you put on the display, by giving the button.

Thus, a soft touch would be a type of like different than a strong touch or a half-beat. The digital pessimism team has gathered information from the Facebook testing team that is developing the software that will make it possible.

I like it a little

We have known, for example, that in case the user gives the <Like> subtly or reluctantly to some post, the system will detect it and a “ I like it a little bit …” , like Can be seen in the image.

In some cases, the user will be prompted to click on the <Like> to make sure that there has been a mistake or an attack of some malicious virus or robot.

I really like it

In another case, for example, in which the user presses the button extremely strong, Facebook will consider that he/she likes itvery much what he/she has seen, heard or read and you will see a “ I love you forever !!!”

The company owned by Mark Zuckerberg is working on a whole range of nuances and incorporating multiple icons, to improve the user experience and fine tune the degree to which we like something.

Control, security and insider trading

Digital Pessimism has also been able to know, through leaks from a development team member, that Facebook will secretly use this information for purposes not wholly altruistic or directed to the good of the community.
For example, if a user exceeds a certain amount of Pressure Pascal, he will be considered aggressive, being able to eliminate his account, for violation of the legal conditions.

In case you are aggressive enough but not enough to eliminate you, Facebook will send you subscriptions to the Pressing Catch channel and post with news from Men’s Health magazine.

On the other side of the spectrum, if the pulse is so subtle, it is almost imperceptible, Facebook will consider the user effeminate, being able to change his sexual orientation immediately and sending him advertising of catalogs of gay magazines or subscriptions to Spotify of Madonna and Lady Gaga.

The possibilities are endless. Now it is only waiting for this functionality to be officially implemented and enjoyed. I like it! 👍🖤
