Watching a bunch of notable infosec accounts jumping on board the 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 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

Meta and the fediverse: sorting heat from light

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 nope meta are not really in control that said what deal has been done some big admins had meetings and signed NDA's which kindda started this whole thing off

yeah the admins are in two camps "block from day 1" and "we will see what happens"

all in all mastodon admins are inn control with the blocking that for sure

interesting to see what happens as some users of instances have fell out with the "block form day 1" guys

will be interesting to watch -

Follow

@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
