People complain about meta all the time. Clearly, its a scumbag company.

There is only one way to make him hurt: boycott all meta products. Uninstall facebook, instagram, whatsapp.

Edit -- I am getting downvoted for this comment. I can't say I am surprised, most of you are too programmed to think for yourselves.

Zuckerberg et al. would actually prefer that we all think that, so that we just stop there and don't proceed to more-effective politics.

Yeah, I don't understand the downvotes either. Complaining is one thing (and it's certainly valid to complain about Meta), but nothing's going to change if a lot of people still use their service. Sure, one person getting off of the Meta platform isn't going to do anything, but millions could have an effect - if only to give less power to the company.

I deleted my Meta account last year and haven't missed it.
