Great article, thanks for sharing. I've smashed the upvote button for you! I really hope this isn't the case, as Facebook is just monopolising everything. Sneaky move to ban adverts for ICOs and then launch their own token. Don't you have enough Zuckerberg?
Also, if you are looking to get some tokens without investing or mining check out Crowdholding (https://www.crowdholding.com). They are a co-creation platform were you get rewarded for giving feedback to crypto startups on the platform. You can earn Crowdholding's token as well as DeepOnion, ITT, Smartcash and many other ERC-20 tokens.
