About Meta on the Fediverse :facebook::geodesic::

I have a lot of concerns about Meta coming soon to the Fediverse.

I fear what this means for the exchange of information that will inevitably happen between us and them.

What it means legally,
what it means technically,
but mostly what it means ethically.

I also fear for the culture we have developed here.

I have deleted my Facebook account 5 years ago and never regretted it. I do not have any other accounts with Meta. For many reasons, I intend to stay away from this unethical corporation as much as I can.

I do not know what my instance intends to do about this, but personally I will block entirely any instance(s) controlled by Meta. I might also lock my account if necessary. This isn't about the people on there, this is very much about the practices of the corporation that controls it.

I sincerely hope their presence will not break the Fediverse :geodesic:

I hope we will stay strong and fight together for the better world we have started to create ✊:heart_cyber:

But I can’t help seeing the arrival of Goliath as a threat to the new world we have built...
