Zynga gets shut down- Updated
After writing a few days ago that I felt that Michael Arrington had unfairly targeted developers as being culpable for scam advertising offers, Zynga goes ahead and proves me wrong by allegedly blocking the IP addresses of Facebook employees from seeing certain ads, and getting Fishville banned in the process.
That’s led to Facebook taking action– in this case, temporarily shutting down the Fishville application, which would seem to be a just punishment if the allegations turn out to be true.
Obviously, this isn’t over yet.
UPDATE: Zynga now says they’re pulling all offers from their games.
