On and off news have been around in regard with Facebook and third-party providers where developers can run their Facebook applications on. Finally Facebook have posted an update specifying the safe and the unsafe ad networks. The most recent entry into the list of blacklisted group is Gambit, about which we have been hearing a lot in in the recent weeks. Briefly, the four unsafe group listed by Facebook are: Gambit, Social Hour, SocialReach, and Tatto Media.

Developers will need to follow the newly revised platform policy. Also, make sure to go through the guidelines once again before you hook up with someone to do business.

Facebook has created two wiki pages in the Facebook Developer Wiki: The companies who can help you monetize your application and the companies that are not permitted to. It’s a clear statement to ad networks; cross the line and Facebook will shut you down. It is very difficult to point out exactly where the line is drawn in today’s world of online advertisements,but those who push and continues to push the limits will surely feel the axe.

Any third-party providers who continues to violate the company’s terms will soon end up being listed on the “Banned” lists. No wonder, with the growing size of enforcement team, it will be a tough walk for those who tries to push deceptive ads through Facebook Platform Applications. Killing two birds with one stone is great, but when the rules doesn’t allow, violators will soon find themselves with none.
