#FecesBook has ALWAYS BEEN shitty. Because Meta is (by Zuckerberg's own admission) #UnethicalByDesign. #MetaZucks

Meta to trial premium subscriptions for Instagram, Facebook and WhatsApp

Under the plan, access to the Meta platforms' core services would remain free.

Signal has a long and storied history with expat & resistance groups worldwide. I first followed my shaykh--who was imam of the Grand Mosque in Damascus until he spoke in support of his people during the Syrian Arab Spring--onto the platform, back when WhatsApp betrayed us all by selling out to #MetaZucks.

#MetaZucks, and TikTok GENUINELY WAS created as a data harvesting and cyberwarfare tool by the Chinese intelligence apparatus (and is likely now going to be used the same way in service of the #TurdReich and its #ICEtapo -- just as in Venezuela, they're not DISMANTLING a hostile autocratic regime's tools, they're just ACQUIRING THEM in a hostile takeover).

Here are some emerging alternatives. Ive also seen an "Islamically ethical" AI recently; ma sha' Allah.

#MetaZucks -- because that owner made it #UnethicalByDesign (and has openly bragged about that fact). #UnfriendFacebook

"According to People, Mark Zuckerberg did not clap along with the rest of the audience at Eilish’s comment."

#MetaZucks because MARK Zucks. It's LONG past time to #UnfriendFacebook for being (as he himself has boasted) #UnethicalByDesign.

Billie Eilish Calls Out Billionaires After Announcing Her Own $11.5 Million Charitable Donation

The pop star put her money where her mouth is while calling on billionaires to do the same during the WSJ. Innovator Awards on Wednesday night.

Consequence

Our regular reminder that #MetaZucks, because it's #UnethicalByDesign.

And also that Facebook was originally created to promote nonconsensual viewing and 'rating' of this creep's female classmates. Why anybody who ISN'T an #IncelQaida creep who doesnt care about THEIR OWN data privacy rights EITHER is still using ANY Meta product will always mystifying me.
