Facebook Page Admin "like this" points to Insights, is it a bug ?

I'm a page admin on Facebook, till yesterday if I clicked on "like this" link it opened a new pop up and showed the list of people who have liked this page. Today when I clicked on "like this" it took me to Insights page. Is it a bug ?


However within Insights there is a "See likes" link which shows the list of people who are page fans. But this sounds like a bug.

Facebook stops Amazon affiliated apps

I got this email from Facebook asking to stop my app which was based on Amazon affiliate program.

To the Developer of Amazon Deals Shop, We're writing to inform you that there's a policy violation in App Amazon Deals Shop(21223172731) that requires immediate attention. We have detected that you are using an ad provider that has not accepted our terms, which is a violation of section III.B.2 of the Facebook Platform Policies. We ask that you use one of the ad providers that have agreed to our terms (http://developers.facebook.com/adproviders).

Basically Facebook has a list of Ad programs that can only be used for monetizing app. My app happened to be purely based on Amazon affiliate, suggesting discounted items and making them sharable to FB users. So I had to stop it.

I for once contacted FB and told that I was not recording any user data in through my app but that did not satisfy them. They just do not want Amazon affiliate to used.

Made me wonder what the real reason could be ? The reason has definitely nothing to do with privacy concerns since I made it very clear that the app does not store any information from the FB user, it just helps the FB user navigate few links (may be through product categories etc) eventually leading them to an item that they want to buy. Finally at the point when user clicks on "Check Out" button they are redirected to Amazon site. After that the navigation is completely on Amazon and the app does not know anything about that.

For now that app is stopped and I am wondering what can I do with all the effort that has gone in creating the app. and finally to be stopped without understanding a logical reason for stopping it!

Rediffmail error - "We are unable to process your request right now. Please try later."

Rediffmail service very frequently gives this error and is unable to load the email which I can not read.  Just stuck with Rediffmail because of a old email address, very poor service. Better to go with Gmail or Yahoo from now onwards.

Many few days old email are giving this error - "We are unable to process your request right now. Please try later." ???
