"Meta has recently started using the personal data of Europeans for AI training. Contrary to its GDPR obligations, Meta hasn’t asked for consent in advance. Instead, the company claims to have a ‘legitimate interest’ outweighing the fundamental right to privacy. A key argument in favour of such a ‘legitimate interest’ is the reasonable expectations of users. This begs the question: do people want this to happen? To find out more, noyb has commissioned the Gallup Institute to conduct a study among 1,000 Meta users in Germany. The results are clear: While almost 75% of users heard of Meta’s plans, only 7% actually want their data to be used for AI training. This also means that at least 68 million people never heard about the change."

Heads up: If you have a kid or an elderly person or anyone else who needs protecting in your life or circle, and they run Instagram - Lord Zuck is trying to get them to share their real time location with everyone.
They have to answer yes to a prompt but I'm concerned a lot of people are going to get doxxed through this.

Adult sites trick users into Liking Facebook posts using a clickjack Trojan https://www.malwarebytes.com/blog/news/2025/08/adult-sites-trick-users-into-liking-facebook-posts-using-a-clickjack-trojan #blogspot #facebook #Threats #trojan #News
@adisonverlice it's a wordplay on #Facebook being complicit with the #NSA and acting as modern day #Stasi (aka. #StasiBook / #NSAbook) by turning it's users into unpaid "ubofficial emplyees" that snitch on their contacts (see the illegal data collection of non-users aka. "#ShadowProfiles")…
@liahaberman i can respect the work you've done on this. that said, i have to laugh too. you're asking a team to improve #privacy for a product that has consistantly violated privacy several times on severAl months. if you are using #facebook / #meta you should know this is going to happen. you should *expect* this. as one of my friends @kkarhan says, #kyc is the elicit activity, and facebook asks for a lot of kyc.
also, this is evident by the amount of #gdpr violations in the #eu meta has received. don't get me wrong, i'm absolutely not discrediting you, i'm glad you got this out. i'm just saying you're shouting at a wall. meta has consistantly violating privacy and #cybersecurity in some cases, and will continue to do so.
so as much as i agree, meta is simply going to laugh in your face rather than do you any good

Es pot marxar d'#Instagram i tens el mono uns dies, però ja està.
Es pot marxar de #Twitter i notes com va desapareixent el mal humor permanent.
Es pot marxar de #Facebook i... fa tants anys que ni ho recordo.

"The jury reached a verdict on Monday that there was a “preponderance” of evidence showing Meta had “intentionally eavesdropped on and/or recorded conversations using an electronic device,” unbeknownst to Flo app users."
Well, who would have thought... /s
