My Meta account got locked without explanation and support couldnt tell me why, but suspiciously right after they implemented their new policies allowing hate speech but also I had deleted all of my posts going back to 2006 not long before that and had only been using it fir groups, so it wasn't as big of an impact so wasn't worth suing them to find out why I was locked out exactly or to start a new account.

"We do not collect your precise location".

So... just like, to the nearest 10 metres then?

"We do not provide bulk information to any government"

So, only on the most important politicians and nuclear scientists?

Iran isn't needed to know that WhatsApp and meta is bad.

[–] libre_warrior@lemmy.ml 5 points 4 months ago* (last edited 4 months ago)

Imperialist outlet Independent privacy washing surveillance messager Meta Whatsapp. They are platforming might - that is Meta Whatsapp spokesperson - instead of privacy focused organizations such as Electronic Frontier Foundation. Painting Iran as paranoid after litterally being attacked by zioni supremacist ruledom.

Now let's be clear. Morality police is bad. Women Life Freedom. They are suppressing humanity. But this work is made to embolden Israel and western might.

Side with folks instead. We need to enblossom the folks at ground so that they can become independent of might.
