If you join a social network that *Mark owns, you get what you deserve, and he gets all your correspondence to mine and sell forever and ever and ever, tying it into all the other data the web has "anonymously" collected about you, even using different usernames, vpn's, and email addresses. ta dah!
Which would be way funnier if Meta's terms of service didn't purposefully include third party users in their collection:
i.e., if I remain as literate as I think I am, it seems to me that the only ways for users on the fediverse to avoid giving over everything and the kitchen sink to the clutches of the dubiously human overlord are to:
1. Defederate any and all Threads instances forever, no take backs.
2. Not have a fediverse account.
Do you mean Mark? Or is there a Jack at Meta that I haven't heard about
