better yet, don’t have Facebook?
zero sympathy for anyone caught in this, you’ve all been warned for at least a decade on what supporting Facebook means, why get upset about this now?

My mom has facebook and also has my photos. Unless we can get EVERYONE to respect each others’ privacy, arsoning meta ceo until next one gets scared is the only option.
The LAST thing I’d do with my mobile phone is install Facebook or Instagram. What a nightmare.
People still use the Facebook spyware app on their phone?
Young people have Instagram spyware on their phones and old people have Facebook spyware.
Forgot WhatsApp there, de facto messaging app in my part of globe, be it young or old…
More people use facebook today than they used in 2015 when you were using it.
About 3x more people.
Is that mainly in India and Southeast Asia? For some people there Facebook is “the internet”, almost like a modern day AOL. Zuck would jizz himself if he could send you free trial CDs twice a week packed with his spyware.
I mean I still use it sometimes, I just don’t use that app. It used to be one of my heaviest battery drains even though I didn’t even use it more than a few times a week.
Oh so many.
My parents still do
Facebook is just socially accepted malware.
If you’re still on Facebook, you’re probably not aware of what this means or why it’s a bad thing.
“Nice dick bro, ever wondered how it would look in a Studio Ghibli movie?”
That brings up a good point though. Based on just the screenshot here, it seems like the user wont have a choice of what gets uploaded. People keep some pretty raunchy photos on their phone sometimes. Even kids might have some questionable photos. This is just asking for trouble.
How long will it take for a sfw kid picture with pink cloths or a splash of red to be misinterpreted, generated and tied to that user? There was already a time on youtube when blood red cloths were getting people demonetized for gore.
Facebook works perfectly fine in browser, there’s literally no need for that shit app.
It actually doesn’t, they lock you out of messenger unless you’re using the app
Works just fine if you put your phone in desktop mode.
Get thee to messenger.com then. Save it as a PWA and its like having the app but you give Meta as little as possible.
I use messenger on Facebook web through. I do have the app as well, but the web works.
Fuck Facebook. Fuck Meta. Fuck Zuckerberg. Fuck the oligarchs. Fuck LLMs/AI. Eat the Rich.
No telling what else they do with your pictures once they’re on Meta’s servers. Literal spyware (as if it hasn’t already been for a long time).
Imagine having your nudes accidentally ghiblified, with the originals stored indefinitely on Meta’s servers.
Imagine Palantir connecting to it and when you apply for a job denying you that due to that specific photo.
In have a simple solution to that one: don’t take nudes.
Yes, let’s stop people from doing what they want with their phones just so some shutty company can continue to thrive.
Ever heard of before and after photos? Some people use them in a work context. Others want to see the results from their gym sesh over time, so on so forth.
🤡 you’re not a clown, you’re the entire circus.
Nb4 a “bug” causes that setting to be true for all users just like with the cambridge analitica scandal
Yes. Just because the feature isn’t useful to you doesn’t mean it won’t be useful to others.
They are probably gonna use it to train AI so no thanks.
I’m asking meta to lick my … Meh never mind.

Because plenty of people care very little about data or security but see all those people on there… so explaining how it is bad matters little as they’ve used facebook for over a decade
