Facebook and instagram shutting down might be the greatest thing to happen to society in the last 20 years
Shut them down. It would be a huge net win for people everywhere. It is horrible seeing friends, family, clubs and institutions all captured by meta. They are a blight on society.
Good. Break them up. Criminally charge their leadership.
Zuck: Yeah so if you ever need info about anyone at Harvard
Zuck: Just ask.
Zuck: I have over 4,000 emails, pictures, addresses, SNS
[Redacted Friend’s Name]: What? How’d you manage that one?
Zuck: People just submitted it.
Zuck: I don’t know why.
Zuck: They “trust me”
Zuck: Dumb fucks.
Don’t be a dumb fuck, do not trust Zuck.
Won’t happen, but it would be really nice
I work at Meta. They’ll spend 1/10,000th of that on lawyers and lobbying instead. There’s a zero point zero percent change that even a fraction of this gets paid.
And the states suing know that too - it’s just politicians trying to grab headlines.
Also it’s generally understood that these lawsuits are just ways for countries to get money from Meta, since it looks a lot better than saying you’re taxing the social media giants
