This is a most excellent place for technology news and articles.
Yikes.
L Oh Fucking L. Horrifying that people will just give all this information to a company that already has class action lawsuits against it for data mishandling, without even giving it a second thought. People are dumb.
Absolutely laughable that all these corporate dumbasses are tripping over themselves to explain how their corporate platform is more user friendly but even with near unlimited technical resources to build a decent product Meta still can't resist the allure of quantifying and selling every element of the human existance
I feel seek watching that screenshot
What does that even mean? Sensitive data? Other data could include basically anything anyway.
But how else will they know what to sell you? Won't someone think of the poor advertisers?!
Seems a bit excessive.
Yea, well, it‘s Meta, so what would you expect…
There's some fediverse Instagram clone instances known as pixelfied and plemora, check out fediverse.info
I’m actually excited about Threads because it supposedly uses ActivityPub. I know all my non-techie friends are going to use it and I should be able to participate from my self-hosted Mastodon instance.
Yay, another sword to fall onto.
Seriously, I'm curious how it goes. Meta can pour an insane amount of money into this, but that didn't work for the Metaverse. People already use IG as a Twitter replacement anyway, and Twitter itself just left a lot of people in a bad taste in their mouth.
So I would predict this doesn't have much of a place anywhere, but who knows.
