   Linux Is Best (linux_is_best@misskey.de)'s status on Wednesday, 22-Jan-2025 16:28:22 JST Linux Is Best

   Anyone who goes through my post history, knows I work for Meta (Facebook).
   
   I am "Consumer Content Administrative Manager". My primary duties include content appeals, account appeals, account reviews, and some peer review.
   
   It is no surprise that my job depends on people using Facebook. Today, I am going to suggest, you not do so. I can make that suggestion because we have a user base of billions, and I know most people would keep using Facebook even if the Devil ran the company. People are strange.
   
   But if you feel you can truly live without Facebook, do so. Internally, things are changing, and not for the better. You should especially consider leaving Meta if you are a minority, woman, LGBTQ+, trans, or identify as progressive, politically. If facts matter to you, and misinformation is something you do not want to be subject toward, you should especially consider leaving, Facebook.
   
   You have no privacy from Meta, while using Meta. None. I do not care if you believe you disabled a "feature" or "opt out" of something. You only seem to have done so. And even if you're going to continue to use Meta, uninstall the app (all of them). We collect data on you, even when you're not using the app.

     Are you implying here that the Devil does not run the company at the present time?

     @Linux_Is_Best@misskey.de I have known that all of Facebook's are spyware from the very beginning.
     
     Why don't you quit your job and start working for a more ethical organisation instead?

     @Linux_Is_Best hi metamate. Can you erase my latest CEE strike?

     Seriously though, I am in the same boat. I dont use the products except that I have to in order to use internal tools. When anyone complains to me about this stuff, my answer is always that no one HAS to use it.
