So the #European #commission actually has received and will review my complaint against #meta, #instagram and #threads over the opt-in nature of threads’s #mastodon federation, their #scare #tactics to prevent users from enabling it, and the #mandatory Instagram account (that is deactivated upon creation and forces you to give your data to them).

Hope the #DMA hits them hard for the violation of their promise of #unrestricted #federation they have #violated.

A question for parents:

how do you get young teenagers to understand that social networking is bad?

A friend's daughter doesn't understand why her friends can use it and she can't?

"Capitalism is bad" isnt some arguments they care about ...

I tried to bring the #blog idea, but not sure it will work

If you have any idea, they are welcome.

#Attention is the fundamental event. Anything that happens outside it, does not enter your experience. Attention is a tube that directs sunlight on some part of your inner garden, and not on others. It is how you cultivate yourself. You are what you attend to. There is nothing more serious.
