davey_cakes,

Well-intentioned people: let's wait and see if #Threads is, for example, a privacy nightmare

Facebook: we're not launching in Europe yet because right now it would be illegal

Right so.

#FediPact

davey_cakes,

If this thing gets to 1000 boosts I'm going to declare victory and delete the server.

silo64,

@davey_cakes this is totally unfair its not illegal right now its been illegal since at latest 2018

davey_cakes,

@silo64 I get very "Don't threaten me with a good time" when certain companies exclaim that the EU makes it impossible for them to do business.

ctrl,

@davey_cakes who could have fucking guessed it

davey_cakes,

Anyway, who wants to tell Mark Zuckerberg the bit about GDPR covering EU citizens anywhere in the world, and not just when they're at home?

:sickos: :sickos2:

vitaminsludge,

@davey_cakes really?

davey_cakes,

@vitaminsludge ah it's a "sort of" really.
I could install Threads at home in NI, take it across the border into the Republic, and if they're doing something the EU doesn't like with my data, by dint of my having installed Threads, and me an EU citizen, they could be at risk.

If I'm in a non-EU country and communicating with people back in Ireland over Threads, and it's all being tracked, could also be tricky af, like if they've tracked that I talked to my Ma, is her privacy involved.

octofloofy,

@davey_cakes fr? lmao just like the quest 2 and forced facebook account
