    That’s 70m people oblivious (or cognitively dissonant) to Meta’s very well documented past transgressions and abuse and exploitation of people’s data. That’s really and truly a shame. The neoliberals are just going to move from one platform to another.

      It’s probably mainly people that are already on Twitter and/or Facebook so they’re not really giving up anything new. To be honest, at this point I’d probably be more willing to trust Zuck with data. At least robots are relatively predictable, Musk seems unhinged.

      Huh?
