    But Meta forces you to have an account to view content, which is already privacy-invading enough.

    And shame on the businesses and organizations who only use these platforms to update their customers/members.

    I’m sure this is entirely out of Meta’s concern for user privacy and not the looming EU regulations on tracking required to be opt in rather than opt out.

    So, what if they purposely turn your feeds to shit, and have an obnoxious ad at the top of every screen saying:
    Don’t like your feed? Change your privacy settings to make it more personalised!

    The company known for stealing and selling your data is giving the option to not do it? Yeah right! Placebo switch. Meta: “Turn it on and hope we don’t sell your data anyway because there is no law saying we cant and we will just get a small easy to pay fine for it anyway if there is.”
