No. Fuck Facebook, and fuck Zuck. There isn't a world in which they would federate and respect our privacy.
See how they build internal user profiles for users not on Facebook through tags and other metadata scraping techniques. If people you know talk about you on Facebook, there's a shadow profile about you out there, waiting to connect with you in real time. I have no reason to think they wouldn't do the same kind of shit here.
Disagree. Excepting the recent extremist ideologues, Republicans have always been fueled by money. From the NRA, to Big Oil, to the tobacco industry, to megachurches, it's always been about money (and the power that comes with it).
The heart of racism in the US is exploitation for profit.
They're not guilty for the things their users do. Bad actors are all over Facebook, so revealing a government was using their platform for nefarious purposes is more like, "See? We can be good guys, too!" It's positive PR to be proactive like that.
Reminder that Project 2025 is a Heritage Foundation plan to gut the powers of Congress and policy-making commissions, and to disproportionately empower the Executive branch.
I do not think for a minute that the 2026 date is accidental.
