The vast majority of people don't actually care about any of the issues you raised. They care more about fitting in with their friends and engineered dopamine hits.

The vast majority of humans are useless fucks that act as though they're incapable of thinking beyond their own self interests, or even less. ๐Ÿคท๐Ÿผโ€โ™‚๏ธ

Well, considering Iโ€™m on iOS and gave it no access to anything, and I would never use it to upload anything to begin with, these issues do not pertain to me. I donโ€™t link accounts on it, and the email is a burner email that iOS made for me to specifically use for that app.

I think a lot of these privacy concerns are more for people who actually want to use it for posting or making videos. Then I would be worried about all the data. I give them nothing, no real names or anything. So, I would say Iโ€™m okay. ๐Ÿ‘
