    People are clueless as to what a massive POS this reptile is. He's a repulsive person.

    Google and Zuckerberg will be sanitized and do down in history as being a good thing. Nope.

    I'd just love to know why you can't have a phone that has nothing to do with Google whatsoever. I get the general mechanics of it, but if this isn't some 1984 level shit, I don't what is.

    Pardon the typo, I meant go, not do.

    Everything digital is like the railroad robber barons. Ha, please don't anyone think that Bill Gates is a good guy. He isn't.

    Only an antisocial sociopath would ever think something like this is cool. Which explains why Zuckerberg thinks it's cool.

    That's nice and all, but Google owns youtube and that's that. Zuckerberg owns everything else. Roger Waters is out of his league if he thinks he can get away from any of it.

    And to think it all started as a way to judge females on their looks.

    Just a beautiful example of how misogyny rules the world... :confused:

    The rebranding was an attempt to avoid getting broken up via antitrust action.

    Nobody can say break-up Facebook now. Instead the regulators have to refocus on breaking up Meta, which will be a much harder thing to do given that Facebook is the demon that everybody is focused on right now.

    Not that I really care about Facebook cause it's kinda weird and Zuckerberg is a douche, but the last 5-10 years Republicans & Democrats seriously couldn't agree on anything, I mean anything. But they both agree to hate on facebook of all things and for that reason I am rooting for them.

    The govt can't build bridges or keep their people safe/healthy or anything but they'll join hands and grandstand for hours on the evils of facebook. The funny thing is that young people dont even use it anyway so in 20 years it'll be obsolete

    Facebook's AI is deeply evil, in the banality of evil category.

    What it does basically is encourage you to click more by any means necessary, up to and including ways that it positively knows are harmful to the interactor.

    The bridges that it builds in society cause head on crashes, like drawbridges that rise backwards from outer to inner, bringing hundreds of people at a time into collisions.
