@Gargron Mark Suckerberg's #meta is as #evil as #bigtech goes - one needs look no further than at what IG does to kids - so this is no surprise. On hindsight, good decision not to use neither f*book nor IG.

@stux When the insides are rotten as shit, any and all manner of cosmetic retouch or rebranding will be futile, if done without any repairs of the rotten essentials inside. QED 🤔

Google’s adtech monopoly just got called out by a US court! ⚖️ Amnesty International urges a rights-respecting breakup to protect privacy & end data exploitation. Time for a fairer, human-rights focused internet where users control their data, not Big Tech. 🌐🔓 #PrivacyMatters #BreakUpBigTech #DataRights #GoogleMonopoly https://www.amnesty.org/en/latest/news/2025/04/google-must-move-to-a-rights-respecting-advertising-function-after-court-rules-it-a-monopoly/ #oldnewz
The US ruled against Google's monopoly. Europe should do the same. We count on the European Commission and Competition Commissioner

@dangillmor Benefitting from #LinaKhan's excellent team at #FTC, the #democrats had ample opportunities (but no gumption nor #politicalwill) to #BreakUpBigTech - now all the stars have seemingly aligned for #tRump and his constellation of #billionaire cronies to harvest from their #corrupt exploits.🤦♂️🤦♀️
Hold #Facebook #accountable for #scams, hoaxes
"As the modern world's primary source of news & info, #socialmedia does have a #responsibility to tell the #truth. #Misinformation is dangerous.. With #freedom comes responsibility. #Meta shld be held accountable for the #toxiccontent spilling off its platforms. It's time for the #government to hold this multi-billion dollar company #criminally & #financially #liable for its damage to the #people of #Thailand"

#Facebook falls down on job
"problem extends beyond #BangkokPost. High-profile figures, legitimate #businesses & ordinary #users hv #suffered #financiallosses & #reputationaldamage as a result of FB's insufficient #measures to prevent such activities.. Despite reporting #violations to FB, e response has been woefully inadequate.. FB shld place a greater emphasis on #ethics alongside biz interests.

Oh Meta hat nachgelegt und erlaubt jetzt nicht nur Transfeindlichkeit auf seinen Platformen sondern stoppt auch Programme um Diversität in der Firma zu fördern: https://www.faz.net/aktuell/wirtschaft/unternehmen/zuckerberg-beendet-diversitaetsprogramme-bei-meta-110224984.html

Given their penchant for influencer-curated "news" & commentaries, one wonders how many of those dull, insecure, pitiable young #men who gave #Trump their #vote will even read this article & get enlightened? #BreakUpBigTech

> How breaking up #Google could lower your online shopping bill
More competitors would enter the market, leading to lower #ad prices due to competitive pressure. This could reduce the "#GoogleTax" on #ads, potentially lowering costs for #advertisers. Without a monopoly, publishers and #advertisers might pay lower fees to use ad services, as no single entity would dominate and dictate high prices.
