Look out, Romney! Facebook cracking down on bulk "likes"

"We have recently increased our automated efforts to remove Likes on pages that may have been gained by means that violate our Facebook terms" of service, the Facebook security team said in a blog post.

I notice there is no comment option, just "like". Do you have to like him to leave a comment now? Not doing that! Used to have fun in the comments there.
