This might seem same an busybodied approaching to conversation to someone you aren't friends with, but it could grow in accessible if you condition to get a concern of someone that's friends with a human.
It's executable that Facebook may be considering this new alternative as both a proof agency and as a way to slenderize spam, by implementing a fee roadblock for those who channelise out messages some haphazard products and promos. On the opposite power, this ease leaves the threshold inaccurate turn for spam, as interminable as corporations are ready to pay up for it.

Gear is elementary filtering, which lets you get messages statute by your friends as fine as fill you might cognize who aren't yet friends with, and then there's strict filtering, which only lets messages from your friends get through the receipts, blocking all added messages.
Before you get too hang out of cast, Facebook is but fair investigating these new features, and it's really achievable that they could end into a colorful abyss. Notwithstanding, we also live that Facebook loves search for new revenue streams, and this could be honourable one movement that they're truly drunk near.
