@Keev @stux If we're being honest, they already have all our data, and many many other companies besides just Meta. User information has been trading hands among companies for quite a while now. The time to prevent it/shut it down was a while ago. So this feels a bit like trying to plug a dam after the town's already been flooded. I think people need to take a deep breath and calm down. Everyone thought Post was going to pose a threat to Mastodon, and I don't hear anything about Post anymore

It's not true
It's not just about data (in general), but about their freshness, correctness, account info, friend list, datapoint....
There is a reason they they want to connect, and the reason is not your wellbeing, your user experience, your safety....
I suppose you know what is the reason.
