They've all discovered that social networking sites are not yet able to control which kinds of pages their ads show up on. Hence some of their ads have been showing up on questionable pages that contain offensive or otherwise unsuitable material on them.
Until the social networking sites can find a way to ensure that the ads of high end companies only show up on higher end pages, these companies may not come back.

The online consumer study of over 5,500 respondents revealed that a staggering 58% of those polled, claimed that they do not use these sites, coming ahead of 27% who go online to re-kindle old friendships, and 20% who want to stay in touch with existing friends. This suggests that factors including the latest legal action surrounding the creators of Facebook, and the clampdown by companies to stop their employees from visiting this type of facility during worktime, have begun to deter many from joining the millions who have already created their own online personal site, and signalling an uncertain future for the Internet communities.
