Threads

Fixed it.

Yea that’s more accurate. Meta can’t watch you when you don’t have their apps. Think, people, think
- Untrue.
When you download Threads, you let The Zuck inside your house. He'll be watching you always then, even when you sleep.
- While doing medical measuring you never asked for or needed when you sleep, Orphan Black style

I showed you my thread, pls respond

chuckles

I’m in danger!

I won’t ever download threads on my phone. Im planning to also delete Reddit soon, I am waiting for my data I requested

Also this is my very first comment on this platform, hello to everyone!

Hello! Have a nice stay
- Thanks!

The caption is wrong. This is Zuck when you have downloaded the app. The list of permissions includes him going to your house and watching while you take a shower.

For some people, thats a feature

Threads got to me late. The moment it was advertised, I’m in too deep the lemmy hole.

At least you guys over on Lemmy.ml won't be dealing with that shit. I hope Lemmy.world will defed soon.

There's nothing to defed from yet, meta hasn't registered an instance yet.
Created my account on Lemmy.ml just for this. Its easy let's go
- if/when account migration becomes a thing, this might be a thing for me to consider. I'd hate to have to make an entirely new account just to join a different instance...

I heard if you try to delete it the name changes to Threats

When you're in the EU and don't have to worry about Threads yet.

Meanwhile in the EU: sleep

Fucking world capital of privacy laws, preach.
Oh, you best believe the Zuck is watching you sleep unblinking.

Terrifying

Meanwhile in European Union: I don't care

I haven't even downloaded Facebook or Instagram. I trust that company less than nearly any other major American tech company.

LOL accurate!

What is this pic from? Photoshopped?

Pretty sure it’s AI
- Zuck can be AI generated so easily because you don't have to worry about the uncanny valley.
- Yah a lot of people think that, pretty sure he’s just a super weird guy though
- I’ve been wondering why there aren’t more memes using AI generated images like this. There is so much potential.

I see your haven't downloaded it yet, and raise you a I don't even know what the hell it is.

Mark ZuckerBear - if you feed him data just once, he’ll always come back for more

Warning: do not feed the zuck

Whelp, looks like sleep is out of the question tonight.

I’m unable to and probably never will. They want like.. all your data

He'll have a long wait

When you nut but she still Zucc-in

He's not human

Thought lizards hung out on the roof not the windows

I'm tempted to start the download then immediately cancel and give a 1 star rating. But I also don't want to add to their download stats. Decisions decisions...

If you downloaded it, did it start trying to gather info before or after you downloaded it?
- I didn't download it yet. An app cannot collect data if it's not even finished downloading. And even if it did finish downloading, I doubt it runs without being first tapped on, even then, the app will need to ask permissions first, which I ain't gonna grant any. You can click cancel immediately after clicking download, then you are allowed to rate the app.

What a cute face

That image might haunt me in my dreams. There is just something so off with his eyes.

He's behind me, isn't he?

This is the kind of guy my mom tells me to avoid and a few years later I understand why she was so damn right.
