I believe knew that would generate this kind of backlash. They just don't care, they're testing limits of what they can get away with ... After all and got away (mostly) with what they're doing. It's the slow boiling frog method ... and people are gullible enough to buy whatever BS big tech marketing is selling ...

Arbeitet ihr gerne um sonst? Wenn nein, dann verlässt endlich mal die kommerziellen "Soziale" Medien! Zum wievilte mal wiederhole ich… ach ich gebe wohl die leichtgläubigen und naiven Ignoranten geistig auf.

»Meta AI – Alle geposteten Beiträge bei Facebook wandern in die KI:
Alle Beiträge, die Menschen bei Facebook posten, wandern in Meta AI - werden also für das KI-Training und KI-Dienste genutzt.«

@tazgetroete Ich stelle mal die These auf, dass es nicht die sozialen Medien per se sind, sondern der rechtliche Umgang mit ihnen in den einzelnen souveränen Staaten!

Es geht nicht an, dass weltweit agierende Netze derart extrem Meinungsmanipulation begehen, Hass und Hetze verbreiten können, gleichzeitig Milliarden verdienen und keinerlei Konsequenzen zu fürchten haben.

#facebook / #meta verbreitet weiterhin #hatecrime! Ungehindert.

#X / #Twitter ist inzwischen ein rechtsextremes Sammelbecken

So is expanding their features on and I was presented with the following. It states I have a "right to object." The next sentence begins with "if your objection is honored...."

WTF? I have a right to object but they get to decide if they want to honor it? What kind of "right" is that? Did they mistype, "You have the slight possibility to object"

To really drive home the "fuck you" nature of this, I clicked on the "right to object" link.

"This form isn’t available."

Screenshot of the Facebook page received after I clicked the "Right to object" link. It reads: This form isn't available. This form is only available to people in certain regions who have an active Facebook account. Make sure you log into your Facebook account and then try again.

I got a notification on that plans to use my posts etc. for training and said they were using the Legitimate Interest justification for doing it.

I sent in an objection stating that using data for training AI doesn't fall within the remit of what a user might reasonably expect the company to do with my data on the basis of the service being provided: https://www.gdpreu.org/the-regulation/key-concepts/legitimate-interest/

They have upheld my objection and will not use my data. So you can do it too!

Fuck you too, Meta AI.

I somehow doubt the request, hidden behind a separate form instead of settings, I made to object, will be honoured.

schickt mir Infos dass sie meinen Content auch in """AI""" verwursten wollen. Erstmal nett dass sie es nicht einfach eh machen (...) aber langsam geht mir dieser LLM Kram gehörig auf die Nerven. Ja, I'm the product. Aber wir schaufeln uns gesellschaftlich weiter ein Grab damit, bei der Goldgräberstimmung nicht auch an Konsequenzen zu denken.

Interesting… notification in Facebook telling me I can object to my data being used to improve AI at Facebook and that if my objection is honoured then that will be the case going forward.

I submitted the form and just got an email saying they will honour my objection.

@jasonkoebler hat sich angeschaut, wie viel "KI" inzwischen auf der Meta-Plattform unterwegs ist. Es scheint schlinmer zu sein, als ich dachte. Und Meta hat keinerlei Interesse, etwas daran zu ändern.
