    Of course not it’s to collect all your data as much as possible and sell to the highest bidder. Wonder Meta hasn’t bought out one of those ancestry companies so they can start collecting people physical data along with their digital.

    Be pretty simple force them to have a Facebook account and or Threads and man the data they could get.

    Because basically its what they want with their terms of use.

        I swear if they really wanted to, they could do that and build a database on par with federal government departments.

            Just pull another Cambridge Analytica with it and watch the world burn. The shady siphoning of data for years until the secret leaks would skyrocket everyone’s anxiety about who had what and questioning everything around them all while conspiracies spiral out of control. If it were searchable at least you’d know, but this way the unknown would be so much worse.

            Have fun with that mental image.
