The Zuck suck is in full swing. (social.fossware.space)

In the few short hours since I started using #Threads, #DuckDuckGo has already blocked over 200 data tracking attempts. These include things like "headphone status" and "screen density."

Idk, literally everyone I know has a Facebook page. They may not use it, buts it’s there almost like a listing in a phone book.

Facebook won't let me login to delete mine unless I send them a photo of my drivers license. Not gonna happen.

Happened to me. Had a fake profile to test some apps and when they asked for an ID, I literally sent a pic of my MIDDLE FINGER. They accepted.

Seriously? I’ve never even given it an email I use, let alone phone number, where do they get off asking for ID?

He may also be an admin of a Facebook page. I was an admin for my job's (an absolutely important to no one but our community company) page, and Facebook suddenly decided one day that I was a 'high value person of interest' , which made me a possible hacking target. The wanted all kinds of personal info, including a copy of my ID, to prove I wasn't some hacker, or they would disable all my access. Fuck no I'm not giving you that, go ahead and disable me
