When companies like META show you how ruinous they are the first dozen times, over and over without end, you believe them, and you defend yourself, or you deserve every bad thing that's going to happen to you, when they repeat their corporate driven ends at your expense

It's the scorpion and the frog, completely.

You're right, but when spreading FUD it helps to have some concrete examples. Otherwise it just looks like you're going off of emotion. It's a dangerous path to go down, but a lot of people have no problem walking it.

I think this falls more into the category of being such blatant common knowledge that it doesn't need to be cited. Just as I wouldn't feel the need to cite the claim that fast-food is unhealthy.
