       How #Meta / #Threads developer Ben Savage was 'welcomed' on #ActivityPub mailing list ☹️:“The company you work for does disgusting things among others. It harms relationships and isolates people. It builds walls and lures people into them. When that doesn't suffice, brutal peer pressure does … That said, welcome to the list, Ben.”I'd say this message is disguisting... Lucky, other were more open |  https://www.wired.com/story/metas-threads-could-make-or-break-the-fediverse/

       @nurkiewicz What sort of welcome should he have expected? He's working for the technology equivalent of a tobacco company, but one which has gone even further - to damage our democracies, our discourse and our children.

       @proactiveservices @nurkiewicz Meta was always problematic, and I'd like to see them fined more often by EU's DPAs.But blaming them for damaging democracy or children is like blaming fossil fuel companies for global warming — feels good for having identified an enemy, but with no connection to reality. The Internet itself is to blame, for now, until we'll find ways to cope.Example: this Fediverse discussion, which is no more productive than your average Twitter/FB interaction.

       @alexelcu @proactiveservices @nurkiewicz corporations need to be held responsible. Meta is a corporation that helped enable a genocide. That should not be ignored.

       @alexelcu @proactiveservices @nurkiewicz also, fossil fuel companies deliberately poisoned the public discourse on global warming. Of course they hold a large amount of blame for global warming.

       @alexelcu @proactiveservices @nurkiewicz "blaming them for damaging democracy or children is like blaming fossil fuel companies for global warming"...Then it's entirely correct. Fossil fuel companies are to blame for global warming.These companies don't work for you, they work for money. They will destroy the planet in the process if that's what it takes.If you say you can't see that you're either naive, or you're working for them.
