I know the outcome of the presidential election in #Romania has a web of complex reasons. But it would be ludicrous to ignore the dangerous impact that #bigtech's laissez-faire and its #trackingads and content #monetisation business model has. Not only #tiktok but also #google and #meta:

Yea, why let the Chinese owners gather information about American consumers? TikTok should be divested to an American company so that an American company can gather information about American consumers. Whoo!

but that's not right, and to me it's really important to be clear about this to #Fediverse users:
#Mastodon and the other ActivityPub clients do almost nothing to keep your data out of the hands of others like #Meta. It's a broadcast platform leaving the door wide open for actors like Meta to vacuum it all up for their own uses.
Anyone posting their content here needs to be aware of how public it all is, how uncontrolled the access to the content really is.
After #Threads made a small step in to the #Fediverse a reminder for all here on #Mastodon #SocialMedia #Decentralized
Will #Meta get my data or be able to track me?
Answer: No.
Will Meta be able to show me #ads?
Answer: No.
Will a large platform like Meta joining Mastodon overwhelm smaller servers?
Answer: No

#Microsoft is being investigated by the #FTC over #antitrust concerns

But in recent years Microsoft has mostly escaped the kind of antitrust scrutiny applied to #Amazon, #Apple, #Meta, and #Google, each of which is fighting its own #monopoly charges from the #government.
If you call it Meta instead of #Facebook then Google is #Alphabet. Good journalism is so hard to find... 😩

"Suomessa on sellainen hassu ongelma, että monet asiat ovat niin hyvin, että ei ymmärretä miten huonosti asiat voisivat olla." -Effi ryn toiminnanjohtaja Tapani Tarvainen
Suomalaiset antavat yksityiset tietonsa korporaatioille ja kun tästä ääneen puhuu, sanotaan että "ei ole mitään salattavaa". Mutta kyllä kaikilla on, vaikkapa ne pankkitunnukset. Sinua vakoilevat mm. Kiina (TikTok) ja USA (Facebook), vaikka et käyttäisi palveluita.
