Shut them down. It would be a huge net win for people everywhere. It is horrible seeing friends, family, clubs and institutions all captured by meta. They are a blight on society.
Zuck: Yeah so if you ever need info about anyone at Harvard
Zuck: Just ask.
Zuck: I have over 4,000 emails, pictures, addresses, SNS
[Redacted Friend’s Name]: What? How’d you manage that one?
Zuck: People just submitted it.
Zuck: I don’t know why.
Zuck: They “trust me”
Zuck: Dumb fucks.
Don’t be a dumb fuck, do not trust Zuck.
It’s so crazy that this came out and is widely known and even people who know about it keep using his service while he is still CEO. Some segments of the masses are truly beyond saving. I guess Zuck wasn’t wrong about them being dumb fucks at least
Fuck that guy
I wouldn’t, he’s ugly
What about for 1 million?
Those are rookie numbers
This is why I never made a Facebook account, seemed pretty clear to me.

Won’t happen, but it would be really nice
I would laugh very hard at his misfortune.
And the note they would end on in the history books, too.
Misfortune?
I’d rather say very well fucking deserved consequences.
When I think these ghouls cannot be more soulless and harmful, they pull things like this out of the arse that is their entire body
Good. Break them up. Criminally charge their leadership.
This. It’s not enough to just break up or dissolve the companies. The people who profited and ran the company must see prison time for shit like this or it will just keep happening.
Steal food, 10 years of prison
Enrich yourself by actively harming the most vulnerable part of the population, the monetary equivalent of aslap on your wrist and 6 months of community service.
The justice system is intended to keep poor people in control and rich people at the controls.
does zuckerborg care about human feelings, no hes trying to mimic humans. meta seems to be self-cannabalizing faster than other tech companies. hes going from one grift to the next.
could
But won’t
PLEASE God let there be SOME way for Trump to PROTECT this BILLIONAIRE!
-Republicans trying to Save The Children TM!
I’m not optimistic. Sure there have been (and will be more) settlements, but substantive policy change at the federal level is desperately needed.
If you know someone who teaches young people, go talk to them about how kids are in the classroom now. The teachers I know tell stories of kids who can’t focus for more than 60 seconds, or answer a question when the answer is literally written on the board in front of them. They can’t function without AI, and even worse, challenge teachers to explain to them why they need to learn something when AI models can do it for them. And administrators pressure teachers to just move these kids along despite their deficiencies. This is all on top of the well-documented mental health problems experienced (and likely caused by) social media use.
This is, in my view, already a crisis and I have the sinking feeling it won’t be addressed in any meaningful way until the widespread social consequences are undeniable.
i realize im completely out of touch with kids lives these days, but its hard to believe its really that bad with chatbots in school. like it sounds like hyperbole, so if its really that bad the next few decades are gonna fucking suuuuck
They are indeed going to fucking suck. Eventually these kids have to try and do actual work.
Not surprised at all. You guys keep using Instagram and Facebook like you always did.
Corporations make an addictive and dangerous substance so it is obviously the fault of addicted individuals
Don’t you go throwing accusations around like that.
They’ll just get end up getting subsidies if they have to even pay anything
Subsidies for what? Those fines are like 3/4 of their market cap, there’s zero way to pay that and remain an existing company.
** The banking industry, hiding in the corner looking sheepish **
That would be an egregiously stupid loan to make for any bank. These fines are from only 3 states. If they actually succeed, more states are going to line up to collect their pound of flesh. Giving the company a lifeline would only allow more debt to pile up, with zero expectation of return
I meant the banking industry over leveraging themselves into extinction and then walking it off because if subsidies and bailouts
i doub tthey get fined that much. but they are important to keeping boomers in the right wing spheres by peddling propaganda.
If WhatsApp could be broken back off of them then that would be great.
Here’s hoping…
They can’t keep getting away with this, they can’t. This has to stop
It won’t. I have almost zero hope.
Get owned fuckerberg
