Nothing as complex as that. Merely not willing to dox myself and limiting the details about my exact location. :)

Prey (2017), Monster Hunter, Stalker, Dark Souls. All great games that only show their true self after some time investment. Not too ridiculous time investment apart from Monster Hunter which gets really fun literally only after a few tens of hours, maybe even a hundred. I wish I was kidding.

European here: looks perfectly normal to me.

Previously you claimed it's enabling the behavior. Is it? Or is it merely a speculation?

[–] TheEntity@kbin.social 1 points 2 years ago (4 children)

Back at you. We're both speculating.

It very much might be an either/or situation for many, even if it's not in all the cases.

It’s still fake. But if it looks like a person in real life, what difference does the distinction make?

I'm pretty sure there is a quite a difference between an actual human being abused and a victimless depiction of such act. Not unlike watching a violent movie. Such people obviously still need help and treatment, but to me it seems vastly better than the alternative.

Let me rephrase to avoid this hyperbole. I mean that the users are presented with two options: one being pretty much bonkers and one being agreeing to the terms. FB was seemingly unwilling to make it a clear yes/no question it is (or should be according to GDPR) everywhere else and decided this manipulation is much more likely to get them the "yes" answers.

EU recently accused them of not asking for data processing consent properly. This seems to be their response.

And same here, mate. No FB in sight for me either.

It's not about getting people to pay. It's about coercing them into giving their explicit consent. Yes, "coercing" and "consent" in the same sentence, let that sink in.

So it's really a slippery slope of customer rights!
