Electronic Frontier FoundationAfter almost twenty years on the platform, EFF is logging off of X.
This isn’t a decision we made lightly, but it might be overdue. 🧵 (1/5)

Twitter was never a utopia. We've criticized the platform for about as long as it's been around. Still, Twitter did deserve recognition from time to time for vociferously fighting for its users' rights. That changed. (2/5)
EFF exists to protect people's digital rights. Not just the people who already value our work, have opted out of surveillance, or have already migrated to the fediverse. The people who need us most are often the ones most embedded in the walled gardens of the mainstream platforms. (3/5)
Our continued presence on other platforms like Facebook and TikTok is not an endorsement. We stay because the people there deserve access to info, too. We stay because the fewer steps between you and the resources you need to protect yourself, the better. (4/5)

••••••••@WorldTravelerAll7 @eff loops is in beta & not good?
i think #Loops is great💙 I use it (same moniker 😉). but i've never used tiktok, so i don't have a great reference
but i wish some "angel" investors would put $ into the #Fediverse & #FOSS just bc it's the right thing for humanity. i know they all need funding
i want to see blue💙 alternatives to Amazon, YT, FB, etc
