    On that note, lets federate with threads! (I‘m gonna rub this in for the rest of eternity)

    I mean, how braindead does someone have to be to not see that meta is the devil.

    Fedipact for the win! :)

      Fixed it for you. Guarantee if they found TikTok doing this that ban would be going through today.

        The TikTok ban isn’t about Privacy - it’s about selling it to Trump’s billionaire backers for cheap. That’s why Truth Social is going public now and “mysteriously” doing so well. It’s leading to a TikTok takeover.

        They took Twitter, already have Facebook, and now are targeting TikTok and Reddit.

        The political right’s biggest enemy over the past 30 years has been the democratization of information. But with the centralization on online activity that’s occurred over the last 15 years, they have a chance to undo all progress we’ve made.

    The project was part of the company’s In-App Action Panel (IAPP) program, which used a technique for “intercepting and decrypting” encrypted app traffic from users of Snapchat, and later from users of YouTube and Amazon, the consumers’ lawyers wrote in the document.

    Looks like they didn’t decrypt anything, just used MitM spyware.
