@BeAware Precisely the point. Did we ASK to be even potentially blasted in front of 200 million people, never before even heard of, just because some Greg behind the TDF account decided to write some program to grab all the accounts off Public timelines, or whatever it was?
The assumption that social media equals automatically trying to get the highest number of eyes on whatever random nonsense you post is flawed. Someone else deciding what we want doesn't work, and was the first move seen.
