Those accounts were then recommended Reels for adult sexual content and sexualized child content, the Journal reported. The Canadian Centre for Child Protection ran a similar test with similar results, the report said."

We're beyond the 'If it's free then you're the product'.
We've reached the 'what you put on Insta is free for us to use whatever way we want'.

Unfortunately the threat's more insidious than X's open racism/fascism so I don't expect artists to leave.

I knew the algorithm was never going to 'promote' me unless I paid so I stopped hoping for any followers besides friends and family but I absolutely refuse to see my art, my beloved little characters Nimbus and Campanule exploited for Meta's profit.

The struggling division has recorded $11.4 billion in losses during the current fiscal year while earning just $825 million in revenue.

#Threads möchte also Politik aus dem Netzwerk halten und verhindert deshalb Suchen nach entsprechenden Begriffen? Das sagt sehr viel über die Denkweise von #Zuckerberg und #Meta aus. Wer Politik aus Diskussionen ausschließt, macht selbst #Politik - aber nicht zum Guten hin.

Er ist und bleibt einer der schmierigsten Schmarotzer im Internet.

#Zuckerberg boasts about how #PyTorch ropes developers into Meta's stack, "when there are opportunities to make integrations with products, [so] it’s much easier to make sure that developers and other folks are compatible with the things that we need in the way that our systems work."
Tooling is a relatively obscure issue, primarily debated by developers. A much broader debate has raged over training data - how it is acquired, labeled, sorted and used.

#Zuckerberg and #Dorsey are just serial bullshitters. #Threads #Bluesky
Take #MarkZuckerberg. #Zuckerberg insists that anyone who wanted to use a pseudonym online is "two-faced," engaged in dishonest social behavior. The #ZuckerbergDoctrine claims that forcing people to use their own names is a way to ensure civility. This is an idea so radioactively wrong, it can be spotted from *orbit*.
From the very beginning, social scientists (both inside and outside Facebook) told Zuckerberg that he was wrong.
