Years after the General Data Protection Regulation, was made law in the European Union, Meta (Facebook)—one of the largest collectors of behavioral data in the world—has announced what could be a major step toward ending its behavioral advertising without opt-in consent.
Wow. Much privacy. So fast. It took them only 15 years and they just came up with that by themself without any pressure from outside. No regulation needed! You guys, I think we all have to give FB an apology! Maybe FB really does cary for our privacy and is not as bad as we think it is!
…
Fuck FB, Fuck Zuckerberg, Fuck Meta!
Fuck all these organizations who exist to exploit our data like a resource, and turn us into a profit.
I’m still on Discord, but everything else I use is FOSS where I can help it. I do not want to make a single 'nother tech billionaire to come into existence through my participation, and I’m pretty determined to abandon anything that threatens to thwart my ambition.
I’m so tired of being made a product, a client, or a customer.
