I wish you posted this when it happened, I mean the first pop up, I would have told you not to do that, and just delete them because you’re not safe there…
Facebook is like a dangerous neighborhood, or a war zone, you gotta have your screenshot app ready to capture at all times if you’re there, that been said;
I got the message on both Facebook and Instagram to either consent to viewing targeted ads or paying the subscription fee. I did neither, and it soon went away. Since yesterday though, I got it again and have no access to any part of facebook
The Zuck loves this kind of behavior, it’s by design, they give you a pop up to agree to some shit, but they don’t make it mandatory, or they don’t make it seem to be, and a hour, a day, a month later, they lock you off your account ( and data ), with the only option being to provide verification to get access to your stuff, and they’ll make the verification process as painful as possible, and most importantly as humiliating as possible, what? Asking people to hold their real ID next to their face is dystopian to say the least… still even after you do that, they’ll just say : verification failed and no matter what you do, you can’t get access, so your pics and stuff are still there but you don’t own them anymore
so to get this into perspective, you pay us a fee, or you pay with your data ( which then we sell as a service ), if you say no ( like you did ), we take what you have given us so far ( and what we were able to get from you by spying on you ), and we go separate ways
File a GDPR complaint, but first I would suggest to try to contact Meta’s support by mail
support@fb.com or platformcs@support.facebook.com
Edit : many have tried to reach Meta support, it doesn’t seem to be possible…
It gets worse when you watch his interview with Tucker Carlson … guy said if a government forces us to censor a group it’ll only censored from the app you get from big tech play stores… That’s horseshit… If you censor a group from your platform, it’ll be removed from all people’s feeds regardless of their clients or from where they got the app…
I’ve seen it firsthand how some channels are not available on telegram downloaded from app store vs direct apk download
the right word is “visible”… discoverability on Telegram has always being broken, as in you search for a channel, good luck finding it!.. like you said it’s because of your phone number region… Etc… that has been fixed when they introduced similar channels feature, since then I never used that broken search functionality… But once you find and join a channel, if Telegram mods decided to censor some posts or remove the entire channel, it’ll be removed from all clients… unless there is some client out there who saves snapshots of all channels or posts ( somehow )
Sorry, should have expressed myself better, sometimes you’re not exactly speaking what you thinking … I was referring to the mobile apps, Friendica main app looks horrible last time I checked
This is not an asshole design, this is the designers being assholes… WTF do you mean the best thing in my life ???.. So the best moment in my life is me signing up to a digital platform… 🤦♂️
If only everyone stops believing in their bullshit humanized deities a looot of these conflicts would just vanish… But my Gods dick is bigger than your God’s dick…
🤣… Theres no way people actually enjoy his content unless they’re as silly as he is… and YouTube basically grabbed their algorithm and rigged it to put his channel on top of the platform ( alongside other channels ), the more subscribers and viewers the more ad revenue they’ll receive…
I think I’ll just call it decrimination, because it can happen to anyone regardless of who they are… these extra words just makes matters unnecessarily confusing
