    Private entities have the right to decide what is or is not acceptable content on their platforms. Consumers also have the right to choose which services they want to use.

    I encourage everyone to stop using anything involved with Meta. I personally have a list of Meta domains blocked on my home network.

    If enough people did this, the problem would resolve itself.

      The people I know are too addicted to quit. They need to leave for another platform like people did with x to blue sky… that’s the only way I see people getting out of the meta world.

      This is why its important for us to retain the right to what Cory Doctorow calls “self-help”.

      Our right to access and modify things are being stripped away and that gives the platforms even more power!

      Today, if you released a tool to bring your Facebook friend list to another platform you’d get sued into oblivion.
