   @stroughtonsmith @gruber It's almost as if Meta created the problem and could've chosen not to if they wanted.

     Threads is the most fun, most interesting new product of the year, and no one in the E.U. can use it, or will be able to use it anytime soon, because their own elected officials passed a law that effectively bans it.

     Nice job. Have fun over here in the library.

     @gruber ah yes, damn those EU lawmakers for… *checks notes* …creating laws around privacy. How dare they 🙄 Next you'll tell us they trying to protect human rights or something, the fools!

     @gruber Yeah, imagine a government trying to protect the privacy of their citizens from a greedy corporation with a track record of harm to real people.

     You really have gone full libertarian.

     @thomasfuchs I don’t hate libraries. But no one is looking for a library vibe with social media. Scolding and shushing, etc.

     @thomasfuchs @gruber Libraries are great! In Toronto you can 3D print. In Montréal you can ‘borrow’ planting seeds—expecting you to bring some back!
