In some of the music communities I'm in the content creators are already telling their userbase to go follow them on threads. They're all talking about some kind of beef between Elon and Mark and the possibility of a boxing match... Mark was right to call the people he's leaching off of fucking idiots.

Well okay, with my piracy habit perhaps I do have something to hide😂

But I also think most people don't realise they do have stuff to hide.

Everything should be private by default. All this shit about nothing to hide is the opposite of that - trying to justify why something should be private. The question is rather why it should be public.

There companies profit enormously on our data and we get exactly nothing in return except the ability to use their service, under the conditions that they put in place. We have zero power to change anything at all about what they provide for us.

A user in that context is similar to a loser. Someone who has no ability to control what happens.

I mean if you want to start paying a fee to use social media.... that's just the choice they make
