Mark Zuckerberg wants you to think he’s a new man because he wears baggy clothes and gold chains.

But the reality is that he’s embracing right-wing politics and spurning critics while presenting himself as a great future builder to distract from the ongoing harms of his platforms. Don’t fall for the deception.

"A febre do #marketingdigital, especialmente no #Instagram, não é apenas um problema econômico, mas também acarreta consequências imediatas e futuras para a democracia."

O fato de ser #MetaFree (não usar produtos #Meta) desde 2016 me tornou um caso de auto-estudo etnografico. #PabloMarçal é tema que não consegue furar meus filtros, e se configura quase como não assunto. Seria Pablo Marçal um típico #InstaCandidato? O resultado dessa eleição será importante benchmark.

Mark Zuckerberg has a new look, and he’s managed to use it to get better press coverage even though his company is still causing a load of harm.

On #TechWontSaveUs, I spoke to @KarlBode to discuss why we shouldn’t fall for Zuckerberg’s rebrand.

It seems after all that Meta used Django to build Threads 🧵

> "… Instagram uses Python (Django) for its backend. By using the same backend for Threads, we could leverage a lot of the existing tech stack for Threads and reuse most of our existing data models, business logic, security features, and server infrastructure.…"

@lalah

any other reaction than running at a full sprint from a rabid animal means death

if my analogy seems a little dramatic: #meta #threads fully intends the death of #mastodon #fediverse

if again, that seems a little paranoid and hysterical: everyone needs an appreciation of what meta is, what it is driven by, and what it does. as fully evident

Funny thing is #Meta can't stop being a cartoon villain character long enough for the #socialweb guys to defend themselves.

They're like, "#Threads isn't so bad you guys, they actually--" BREAKING NEWS ZUCKERBERG CAUGHT FUELING AI SUPER COMPUTER WITH BABY ORANGUTANS

Yeah, @zuck needs to fix this ASAP!

👉🏾 College students used #Meta’s smart glasses to dox people in real time https://www.theverge.com/2024/10/2/24260262/ray-ban-meta-smart-glasses-doxxing-privacy 🔛 @verge

I wonder if #Meta will make this data publicly available for all users (as in I can see the same information on other accounts)‽

It would help determine how many #Threads accounts are on the #Fediverse.

👉🏾 Threads users can now see who follows them from other fediverse servers https://techcrunch.com/2024/10/01/threads-users-can-now-see-who-follows-them-from-other-fediverse-servers/ 🔛 @TechCrunch

OMFG this.

A Fedi-Coming-to-Jesus:

More than even the threat of #Meta, if the #Fediverse does not address its anti-Blackness in the general populace, it will rot the community from the inside out.

You can hate me for mentioning it if you want, but you know it's true. Deep down, you can feel it, too. Sometimes, we’re afraid to admit a problem we don't immediately know how to fix.

And that's fine—it's human. But history is clear about what happens if we don't figure this out.

#Meta Passwords Stored in Plain Text 🙄

Meta has been fined $101 million after it was discovered that up to 600 million Facebook and Instagram passwords had been stored in plain text since 2012

Dan I got nothing but love appreciation and respect for you.

But #Meta is the problem the #fediverse is here to solve.

#Activitypub is open, no reason why #Meta can't work on it.

But there is every reason in the world why we can't work with them.

Why is #Mastodon #SocialWebFoundation #Pixelfed working with #Meta #Facebook #Threads?

'multiple Facebook users in states like #NorthCarolina, #Mississippi and #NewJersey continue to share the #ballot #misinformation without any notification that it’s false.

#CNBC flagged posts with the false information to Meta. A company spokesperson said, “Meta has sent them to third-party fact-checkers for further review.”'

Not partnering with trillion-dollar people-farming, human-rights-eroding, and democracy destroying surveillance capitalists like Meta should be the lowest of low bars when it comes to organisations that purport to work on ethical technology but, clearly, even that bar is just too fucking high for some.
