Will people here use/try Meta's #threads when available? Would love to know the reasons or if it would be just for fun/curiosity.

The amount of data collected is insane imo.

Why does it need to be worse than the awful shit awful companies are already doing in order for it to be a concern?

Especially to people here?

Believe it or not, some of us aren't using any of those apps.

And maybe, just maybe, people should be horrified at what those other apps are collecting, top.

@Kichae

The OP is trying to make it seem that it’s new and shocking when it clearly is the same shit almost all the other social media apps do. Try reading better or understanding context.

Fucking idiots all over the internet think that once you say one critical thing you’re immediately the enemy. Fucking grow up, kid. Why the fuck do you think I’m here?

You’re clearly not here to have a meaningful conversation. Put the vitriol down or go back to Reddit.
