For the first time, maybe ever - #Meta is spreading joy ;)

Their full commitment to #AI actually means (A(ll (I)n for Meta now. After the failed #Metaverse, they really need this to work!

Is #MetaAI even any good though? Wouldn't know - don't even know anybody who's ever used it 😜

In other #News we reached 1000 members in our reddit.com/r/DeMeta group today 🥳

🦾 The resistance is growing ❤

RE: mastodon.online/@mastodonmigra…

There we go!

I feel like i keep reposting this every week or so..

Bit by bit #Bsky is sliding towards just another clone of #Twitter and #Facebook

Actions speak louder then words

The #Fediverse remains the only true open source, self-hosted world wide community driven by the people

Going #AI (#LLM) is a CHOICE, they again chose wrong

Today, #facebook bots (Meta-ExternalAgent, you know, the one to train AI) took 21 days of wallclock time and 19.9 GB of bandwidth to index the development version of one of our websites for which crawling makes no sense and is explicitly forbidden by robots.txt.

Maybe it is a signal that we must spend some of _our_ time to make them lose more of _them's_. Any creative idea?

So essentially #Meta imagines a world, in which people don't even have to write their own messages to family and friends anymore?

Like we are not talking useless emails read by a bot here:

Guess it's a good time to reddit.com/r/DeMeta/, to avoid massive amounts of inauthentic messages?

The Meta-owned messaging platform is also launching a way to free up space, the ability to touch up photos with Meta AI, and more.

Det er velkendt her på gode #Mastodon at #meta er vanedannende. Noget #danmarkskifter.dk også lagde vægt på.

Det jeg synes der kunne være interessant at få belyst på nationalplan er, hvad den enkelte mener der skal til for at give slip på #Facebook eller det der gør, at de har brug for at blive der.

Stiller spørgsmålet fordi jeg antager, at nogen (læs: ikke alle) virker til at være pænt ligeglade med hvordan Meta opfører sig. De trækker bare på skulderen og siger mediet er nemt at bruge.

Men er der mon slet ingen moralsk grænse?

Det er det, jeg finder interessant og skræmmende.

#Meta was just found guilty and only fined $375 million?

Another slap on the wrist...

If you need proof:
"Meta shares were up 0.8% in after-hours trade following the verdict. The state had asked the jury to award ​more than $2 billion in damages."

Pretty weird when a legal win against a Mega-Corporation feels like that 🥲

Well there are always all the other current cases and potential next cases against them :))

They can't seem to help themselves with those internal memos 🤯:
"...reported that the company was considering adding facial recognition to its glasses. In an internal memo on the topic, a #Meta employee wrote that the timing to launch might be perfect: "We will launch during a dynamic political environment where many civil society groups that we would expect to attack us would have their resources focused on other concerns.""

Meta Ray-Bans are fueling all kinds of bad behavior

Meta's Ray-Ban glasses are sparking a popular genre of video on social media: harassing store employees and random people.

^{Katie Notopoulos (Business Insider)}

"Nick said the reason for the prioritisation was that - in his view - the company ultimately cares less about children's safety than it does about maintaining a "strong relationship" with politicians and governments, to avoid regulations or bans which would harm its business."
This from the company that allegedly lobbies for and funds the push for ID verification, ostensibly to 'protect children' but really to harvest biometrics.

☑️ Just wanted to share my favorite #Meta patent ;)

🧟 You can feel safe, knowing they are looking out for their users - even after they die!

🦸 #MetaAI will make everyone immortal.

🌐 Nobody will have to be sad about their favorite influencer or relative dying ever again, what a wonderful Metaverse they are building for us.

A redditor (Ok_Lingonberry3296) traced $2 billion in nonprofit grants and lobbying records across 45 states to figure out who's behind the age verification bills.

The answer is Meta - a company that profits from your data writing laws that collect more of it.

This change is both state-sponsored and to the benefit of Meta (Facebook / Instagram).

Guess Meta's all in on #AI isn't paying off ;)

"Engagement rates on #Instagram, LinkedIn and #Threads declined last year compared with 2024, while #Facebook, Pinterest and TikTok increased slightly."

Not a good look when you just had to write off the US$ 73 Billion from that failed #Metaverse!
