This is what Zuck wants to change with Threads.
It's not. He wants to create a social media that exploits its users without being accused of monopolistic behaviour.
All the tasty data collection and surveillance with none of the calories.
What kind of "tasty data collection and surveillance" will Meta have access to that they didn't before federating?
they will have an excuse to do it openly instead of trying to do it secretly and inevitably getting caught
That doesn't answer my question.
