Watching a bunch of notable infosec accounts jumping on board the #Threads bandwagon makes me want to scream.
If you would expect anyone to carefully read privacy policies and app permissions, you'd think it would be these people.
They did the same thing with #Bluesky and I lost respect for those people when that happened. This one is even worse.
@voltronic i don't get it why sign uo for threads when thread posts wull be shown on the fed=everse
i'm in ht e"well, lets wiat and see"
no expert me but
Meta are gonna screw mastodon somehow might take a while but it'll happen - force mastodon into adding ads - force mastofdon into paying for some new featgures etc,,,,, idk maybe overthinking
big fall out i'd say will come whatever happens

projrct 29 death threats and fall outs with admins lmao
@ecksmc
I don't think Meta can force the Mastodon instances to accept or do anything. I think that if they try to get aggressive, the other instances will block them as mentioned in these articles.
The whole thing is off.
@voltronic why meta choice this method is strange
they coulda developed an app withoutn AcvitPub not like mastodon has billions of users it's got a few million a drop in the water for mets really
deffo hidden agnda i'd say
@voltronic also users can block domains from their own settings it doesn't take admins to go full metal block mode
if individual users don't like threads showing they can block thread domain themselves
