Join or ignore the anti-meta fedi pact
This is a bit political but i feel this should be looked at. Whatever it's on on the Lemmy instance or the Mastodon instances.
My main concern is about the concept of Embrase Extend Extinguish they could use.
You're viewing a single thread.
I'm of the opinion that we should defederate right away from Meta's service. I don't see any advantage to giving them a chance as their whole modus operandi is collecting and harvesting user data. The whole NDA stuff really rubbed me the wrong way.
For those who don't know, Meta reached out to big instance admins and invited them to some kind of meeting:

Stux didn't go but was invited, and confirmed this. Those who went were made to sign an NDA.
Yeah, I say block based on this experience alone.
Yeah, I don't like devs using the term "fediverse stakeholders". Big big red flag.
The fact all these big admins went to a facebook gathering, were made to sign an NDA, and now refer to themselves as "stakeholders" is more than sus. This is a clear EEE attempt. Reinforcing my vote of pre-emptive block. Keep this data-stealing corporate nonsense out of our spaces.
It's not like it would be difficult for them to harvest data even if they didn't have a service that was federated.
