pyr0ball , in How to delete Instagram account when they say "it’s not safe for us to let you log in" ?

If you live in California or the EU, you can file a CCPA or GDPR request, respectively, to force them to delete your data

hetzlemmingsworld OP ,

Where? I do not have a contact to fill it.

Update: I see that there is https://yourdigitalrights.org/d/instagram.com and they use email address support@insta****.com for their GDPR request.

Maybe they have some recent Kessler syndrome modelling that makes it more urgent. Given the build up in low Earth orbit it's a reasonable backup idea.Also the global south is pretty underserved

Hasn't this type of thing been going on for decades? Why is it news that meta is doing it?

They've been planning this for like 10 years at this point. Google laid thousands of miles of cable that are operational since the last time I heard about this.

Toll road. I know what's going to happen with this. People are going to have the option to get a subscription for faster internet access or some shit.

A global undersea cable network has been in place for 30 years. It's woefully overcapacity 24/7.

It takes huge capital and time to lay cable, and the point of doing it is that you're booking bandwidth from ISPs, often years in advance. There's competition, but it's also a seller's market because of huuuuuuuge bandwidth demands.

    are you sure? i know it's been like that for TG, but it's the first time I hear that WhatsApp groups aren't E2E

    AwesomeLowlander ,

    I stand corrected

    Should have used Signal

    fr, WhatsApp is only good for keeping in contact with, I dare say, normie friends. Other then that, keep it the hell away from me.

    I don't have any of those, so I'm good.

    Meta has always been right. Did everyone forget Cambridge Analytica?

    It’s nice to see they mentioned Mastodon!

    NaibofTabr , in Instagram Suspends Zohran Mamdani’s account, Leaked Memo Cites ‘National Interest’ as Meta Tilts Right

    The suspension, which lasted approximately 3 hours before his account was reinstated, was explained by Instagram senior directors in an internal leaked memo that his content was deemed “too socialist,” and goes against current national US interest.

    Wow, that is blatant. McCarthyism all over again.

    Disgusting.

    mhague , in Instagram Suspends Zohran Mamdani’s account, Leaked Memo Cites ‘National Interest’ as Meta Tilts Right

    It sure is weird how only one sketchy website is running this story. 20+ hours after a politician was supposedly censored due to a leaked memo, nobody else cares?

    TachyonTele ,

    Damn, you're right. This isn't covered by anyone. Only other mention of it i could find was on a blogpost.

    Good. The more shitty this platform gets the more people will want to leave. I hate that most people I know in the arts are stuck on this dumpster fire because “that’s where everyone else is“
