It's about Facebook allegedly stopping it's streaming service to keep one of its largest ad revenue customers happy (Netflix), but also that court docs were unsealed in an anti trust suit, and Facebook may have agreements with Spotify and Netflix, to allow them to read users DM's (no idea why that's relevant but yeah, fuck Facebook! Lol)
It's very speculative though and may not be true. Not that it'd surprise me if it were true either though..
🤷 Does anyone here even use Facebook?
🤷 Does anyone here even use Facebook?
I think a lot of people use it out of necessity
It's hard to dump a messaging platform if you need to talk to certain people
Yea i prefer other platforms but all my friends use it, its the only real way to talk to my mom remotely (shes deaf) and for all its faults its consistent and reliable
excuse my curiosity, i don't use facebook. What makes facebook a helpful messenger for a deaf user?
I assume they mean that making a regular phone call is not an option, and FB Messenger is better than SMS. Just speculation, though.
I deactivated Facebook proper years ago but still have Messenger active due to one group chat and the ability to contact many people I don't have other contact info for. I don't install it on my phone or access it on my desktop- only have it on my old iPad. Check it maybe once or twice a month.
If I ever get a new iPad, I'm probably going to cut it off for good.
What?
Yeah, what a horrible headline lol.
