Here we have another thing to add to the long list of reasons the world would be a better place if Meta didn’t exist. Not only is Meta in league with the scammers, they’ve become scammers themselves, too.
The only part of the world that seems to have any teeth when it comes to regulating Big Tech is the EU, and even they aren’t fully up to the job. Now that Big Tech isn’t just supporting the scammers, but has turned into the scammers themselves, the rest of the world joining the EU’s approach is long overdue.
Meta created ‘playbook’ to fend off pressure to crack down on scammers, documents show
Meta’s advertising is now indistinguishable from pirate site banner ads.
Hey just like Google!
And nothing can be done about it because they own everything. I hate it here.
EU is changing the rules, so Meta has to reimburse the victim of a scam if meta is not removing those scams. They scream bloody murder of course.
meta and other big tech conglomerates have been doing shady stuff like this and selling user data for years. i miss when the internet was less corporate and 5 websites didn’t have all the userspace.
