Financial Info, Identifiers, Sensitive Info... Woudn't it be easier just to give them my wallet and passport.
Meta is sickening. You have to have it for promoting events, artists and such, but it’s toxic and needs to be replaced.
As a music artist, I don’t know how to avoid platforms like Instagram and such while still promoting my art.

Are people really going to sign up for another Meta site? I'm sure as shit not. I finally deleted my Facebook account a couple weeks back, and I'm feelin' free!
I assume you wouldn't need to sign up. If you already have a FB or Instagram account, you would just be able to log in directly
To this day I have refused to download messenger for mobile since "needing it" is totally bullshit since you can just hit "view desktop site" in Chrome mobile. Won't ever get this bs either.
do they also need nude pictures of me?, or with the blood type and a medical history is enough
Seriously I am already struggling to get meta out of my life enough to sign in to a new service with them.
Where do I sign?!
Meta knows they can’t fix their terrible privacy record so they might as well milk it.
"sensitive information" I think...a good chunk of this is already sensitive information what else do you want T.T
What not even call logs? Lame
How invasive is this really when compared to the first party Twitter app?
Isn't that just...everything?
Like is there anything they aren't requesting?
Dont have Instagram or Facebook won't be getting this either.
Don't forget to report it inside Play Store. All of these permissions are not required, thus the app is breaking store rules.
I cant believe apps tracking user data this much can even be allowed on app stores
It's a perfectly named app. They're pulling on the thread of privacy protection until it's all undone.
