Threads' New Terms and Conditions Affects the Fediverse

This shouldn't come as a huge surprise. Meta is moving forward with their plans for Theads and the Fediverse, and their adjusted terms reflect a new impending reality for Fediverse users.

Whether they need it to federate or not, it's still reasonable to not want an entity as large and powerful as Meta to consume this data. Fuck Meta because it's Meta, which has a history of being particularly heinous with user data.
If that's your opinion then great, that was always allowed. What I'm sick of is spinning facts and narratives to suit biases, regardless of whether or not I agree with those biases.
If you don't want Meta having this data you should not post it. They vacuum up everything.
Of course, but that doesn't mean people aren't allowed to distain making that connection closer.
I don't imagine Meta is bothering to scrape Lemmy instances anyway. The signs would be pretty obvious I'd imagine.
Why not? Citation needed.
