I am fucking scared of the mass surveilence nightmare direction that the internet and the world as a whole is going towards… C2PA, france hacking itself into citizen phones, the UK anti encryption law, EU’s chat control, etc. Im also sick of and hate the “you will own nothing and be happy” mentality that corpos try to push. I dont wanna know how the world will look like in 5-10 years.
Any job that forces you to use Meta services is probably exploiting you in other ways and isn’t worth whatever they’re paying you. Even employees of Facebook don’t have to do this.
Lol no they’re not. It’s a small company and I know everyone. I have to use WhatsApp to communicate with various 3rd party vendors in Europe because that’s the standard there. That’s all.
Run Whatsapp in a sandbox on a separate profile with minimal permissions. Disable it when you don’t actively need it. Only use the absolute minimum of meta services, and only provide the minimum of your personal information.
And for google use a new blank account, never connect it to an account that has any of your personal information.
