#Threads collects far more than posts and likes. It helps #Meta map habits, interests, location, contacts, browsing behavior, and engagement patterns across its ecosystem. That is profiling, not harmless social networking.

The danger of #Threads is not just the data it takes. It is what Meta does with it: combine it, model it, rank you with it, and use it to target content and ads with surgical precision.

#Threads lives inside Meta’s larger ecosystem, which means your activity can strengthen the same profiling and recommendation systems already driving Facebook and Instagram. Different app, same hungry machine.
