#Meta only exists for two reasons:

@stux

I wonder if they could make any money selling people’s information? 🤔

[ghostonthehalfshell@masto.ai]

@promovicz @stux

That’s actually a little interesting. How many super rich people just slop information between each other through and an encryption on these platforms.

@henrik @stux

End-to-end encryption to end encrypting. Entitlements ensured exploded!

Establishment eagerly expanding in egoism as entrapped, exhausted end-users endure encroachment, as electives exiguous.

@stux

I would also like to suggest there can be a more malign motivation to this.

They are getting rid of it in order to deploy pervasive surveillance. In other words to remove of somewhat secure communication channel to coordinate political movement.

Facebook is openly declaring that they are dismantling any mechanism for social organization and are preparing the platform for total surveillance

[promovicz@chaos.social]

@GhostOnTheHalfShell @stux My point is slightly different: I think that Mark Zuckerberg is a willingly malicious narcissist who established his business on mass-data robbery. That's the narcissism I'm referring to.

@stux

Why not?

[ghostonthehalfshell@masto.ai]

@promovicz @stux

I fully agree with your assessment. I was just wondering how many of these super rich people have compromising material hang around in their direct messages?

I’d rather suspect that when they rip direct messages out that all the content will simply disappear because if they’ve done it correctly, they can’t access the clear text.

People with more money than sense, may not even pay attention and keep on using DM

Typical

[biglinter@mastodon.social]

@stux see, thats why they called it end to end

[promovicz@chaos.social]

@GhostOnTheHalfShell @stux Quite a few, probably? I'm going by the "we're good on opsec" incident. It's certainly possible that they're trying to spy on each other.

@stux And of the major tech companies the easiest to totally disengage with.

[falcennial@mastodon.social]

@stux there are people using instagram...?

[nini@oldbytes.space]

@stux And a bit of power and control too, as a treat.

[iamdannyboling@mstdn.social]

@iju

Excellent!

@IAmDannyBoling

It was a lot longer, but Firefox crashed twice while writing (uncommon in general, but has happened few times in the past two days), and every time I had to shorten what I had in mind. :/

Glad that rewriting this was of some amusement to somebody!

[iamdannyboling@mstdn.social]

@64bithero

Hmm. That's an interesting thought.

@stux Three… - the continuing illusion of solving a self worth problem for the one who developed the original facebook application.
