hahah them pedo vamps can't enter unless you give them permission ;)

Unfortunately, I think the permission is in the terms of service that people agreed to without reading it.

If it quacks like a duck, swims like a duck, and looks like a duck, then it probably is a duck.

The problem is there are plenty of people out there (especially Magats) who are easily convinced the duck isn't there at all. You know... morons.

Help! Zuck is clawing at my window hissing "GIVE USSS THE BOY!"

I don’t want to know who you are. But I want to peer into your soul via machine learning techniques.

It's not a pyramid scheme, it's a reverse marketing funnel!

Face recognition just has such bad connotation. We need to do away with this label and call it something like "friend recognition" or just not talk about it at all!

Wonderful that a provider like facebook with an excellent track record for looking out for their clients is taking the reins to change this.

[–] madeindex@lemmy.world 2 points 2 days ago

haha they might even rebrand as "Friendbook" while they at it ;)

turns out they actually get zuckbux now for looksmaxxing

It's doubtful that the kid 'fooled' it. It's far more likely that it's programmed to let any kids that try to circumvent it, 'fool' it.

I don't use any social media other than this, and maybe a few music/audio forums.

But. I honestly don't get why more haven't moved to Pixelfed or Nerimity, as they are far more privacy focused (not very hard comparing to anything Meta).

If it's lack of communities/people, why not use the meta platform to advertise one of those two, the way everyone did the "je suis Charlie" thing that was all over the news a few years ago?

Meta are apparently unable to stop users doing something like that, allegedly.

Or so it seems when it's not their problem.

They are genuine questions by the way.. I don't get it, but I've never been on any of them, not even MySpace or Bebo.

I also wondered the same thing and came to the conclusion - if you want something done you have to do it yourself ;) Was going to start this later but if you want, come join here, make a post and then let's start breanstorming on this: !lemmy.world/c/FediPropaganda This project is already working pretty well: !lemmy.world/c/DeMeta (bigger on Reddit thus far)
