    Yeah this is truly insane. This will never be on my phone. It also helps that Europe thinks this is bullshit as well and it’s not available here.

      Haha good one! I was wondering why that name sounded familiar and this is it.

      Very good film to see… once and never ever unsee or forget the images, isn’t it?

    YSK Meta is also a threat to the privacy of fediverse users, if there are fediverse instances that remain federated with Meta.

    Ross Schulman, senior fellow for decentralization at digital rights nonprofit the Electronic Frontier Foundation, notes that if Threads emerges as a massive player in the fediverse, there could be concerns about what he calls “social graph slurping." Meta will know who all of its users interact with and follow within Threads, and it will also be able to see who its users follow in the broader fediverse. And if Threads builds up anywhere near the reach of other Meta platforms, just this little slice of life would give the company a fairly expansive view of interactions beyond its borders.

    To be fair, I bet most apps probably track the same. But meta (probably for legal reasons) has to tell you about it.
