More Things You Can Do

aside from protesting

There are a lot of boycotts going on right now. I have seen calls for an official day (February 28) of no shopping and others that are extended avoidance or limitation of using: Target, Walmart, Whole Foods, Amazon, Airbnb, Tesla, Meta, CNN, Fox News.

I've also seen boycotts, individual and collective, of businesses like Sephora or CVS, which voluntarily rolled back their DEI. (So did Disney, btw) But while boycott is a power you can flex (and save yourself money in the process), I think it's easier to list some places that have NOT caved on their DEI and/or who are even actively supporting it: Costco, Walgreens, Ulta, Lush, Penzey's, King Arthur Flour, Bob's Red Mill, Albertson's grocery stores (includes Safeway), Apple and more

Delete any Meta apps you aren't using/don't need. This includes Threads, Instagram, Facebook, Messenger, and whatever stupid VR thing they try next that will fail. If you do need to keep using them (small businesses, unfortunately, still often do), you can still keep Meta from profiting from you by going into your Privacy Settings and turning off any function that allows them to collect your information for ads. Meta does not make this easy to find, btw. And you are going to end up with weird ads, but just ignore them.

Go into all of the Meta apps you use, find the Privacy Center, under Settings, I think, find Ad Preferences or Common Privacy Settings. It's then going to make you click on more things, like Manage Settings. And then you can turn off settings like "Use your information to show our ad partners"

Then you have to find the other settings to turn off other companies sharing your information with Meta jfc

Here, John Oliver explains it better

Switch from Chrome. (I have to use Chrome to pay my electric bill, they won't let me use another browser. Dicks. But for everything else, I use Firefox or Ecosia) Firefox isn't Google but also Firefox lets you add extensions to block tracking or ads and I have one up to help limit Meta's information scraping anyway. And it's free! Switching only takes minutes!

Use Mapquest --Mapquest is not referring to the Gulf of Mexico as anything but the Gulf of Mexico.

If you are into these sort of podcasts, The Meidas Touch is openly critical of Trump and Musk, and just ousted Joe Rogan from Spotify's top spot.

This one is difficult for trans people right now but everyone, yes everyone in America, get your IDs in order and up to date. They are going to try to push some Voter ID shit too (where they haven't already) so take the time NOW to get your paperwork in order. Go request (or order through the mail) a certified copy of your birth certificates from the county where you were born. Going in means you only pay the County Clerk fees. Through the mail usually means you will have to have something notarized as well. (Hell, anyone who changed your surnames when you got married, maybe get a certified copy of your marriage license too.) Get a Real ID. Get a passport if you can afford it. Passports also require a certified copy of a birth certificate. If you have a valid passport, it will work in place of a Real ID but get both if you can. American passports are good for ten years (for adults).

Also, and this sucks, get your affairs in order. You could get hit by a bus or something, and you want to make sure your death is handled *how you want* and your loved ones get what you feel they should, regardless of your gender and how many roadblocks the govt is going to try to throw up in your way. Protecting Trans Bodies in Death and Making Your Death Plan (videos from Caitlin Doughty). Also and I know I keep harping on this, MAKE A WILL. MAKE IT LEGALLY. Look up your state's requirements for such a document or hire someone to do it for you. (Sometimes credit unions or regular unions will offer this as a service. LegalZoom also exists if that is more your jam.)

Fun stuff (cuz sorry about the death stuff!)

Got Spotify or Tidal or even Youtube? Start making playlists of POC and queer artists, and make them public. Search for BIPOC and/or queer podcasts and video essayists.

Personally, I've been putting on all the booktuber videos about ditching Kindle and just letting them play in the background while I do tasks. Someone is out there on Youtube speaking the truth? Like and Subscribe! (It helps them get visibility and shows Youtube there is an audience, and if it worries you... it's not permanent. You can unsubscribe later if you want.)

Like books by BIPOC and/or queer people?? Recommend that shit. Check it out from libraries even if you've read it before!

Be Kind. Be kind to people and to yourselves. Participate in boycotts and remember they can mean *totally avoiding* a store, or, if there is no alternative for what you need, then *spending far less* there than you normally would. Shop local. Shop small. Spread correct information as best as you can. Remember that Black lives matter, that trans lives matter, and that way more people on our side than they want us to realize.

I agree that everyone can achieve their own unique version of beauty, everyone IS beautiful in their way, but being on ig and seeing these perfect looking girls has often made me feel insecure about my entire appearance. It's concerning to me that guys with gfs/wives never take their feelings into consideration and actually follow these ig models. instagram and the men who comment nasty things on these girls photos should be permanently shut down

Delete instagram, its the worst social media platform at this point. I deleted it a couple of months ago n this app repulses me. Id rather be on facebook with 60 year old aunties or tiktok. And if u gotta use it use it for shit like animal vids and keeping track of local tattoo artists, hobby stuff and talking to your friends etc. No point in browsing some models' accs other than maybe fashion inspo but even then maybe follow 10 maximum and dont let it become ur entire feed. And if u already have self esteem issues and want a monogamous relationship its an awful idea to date some dude who openly thirsts for other women publicly on social media. I dont see how following 800 ig models or posting shitty softcore porn on tumblr 24/7 is any different to like going out on a date with him n he starts flirting with someone else right in front of you. Of course it fucks with ur self esteem to be with someone like that. They are humiliating you. He certainly wouldnt be as chill if you were bragging about having a folder with a bunch of random dick pics on ur computer

[ourpickwickclub]

OMG someone (GR? lol) must be reporting the comments on ET's IG, cuz some of the BEST ones are now hidden. Whoever screenshots them, can you please get the hidden ones too, cuz they are too good. like these:

I think I speak for all women Gavin, you cheated we don't give two s**** about your feelings, and you get to live with that until your kids you're a big cheating loser bag.

Here's how not to get divorced don't be a whore

You cheated and how she found out about it was humiliating and you wish there was more of a connection with the person you cheated on???!!! Your narcissistic, self centred, selfish side is showing. Go back under your rock and grow a sensitivity chip. Geez

Maybe he should have kept his 🍆 in his pants!

Wasn't he banging the nanny? That's what he should feel shame about

Should have thought about that when he was cheating with the nanny! 💩

Came to the comments to say what everyone else is saying YOU CHEATED THOUGH RIGHT? Woman are not centers for broken men 🖤 men need to grow up and hold themselves accountable for destroying things. This dude is a clown and I hope he knows it.

You never thought you would get divorced? Because you thought Gwen was a slave to your blatant and flagrant infidelity? What a pompous loser!!

The man shagged the nanny and now is blaming the ex for the family break up and lack of connection 😒

Oh, please. We know this type of guy. Effing Cheater!

Stupid m fu**er 🤷🏼‍♀️and with the Nanny 🤦🏼‍♀️stupider 😩

He’s a butthole

Somebody smack the audacity out of that man.

Well duh you wouldn’t have if you had kept you 🍆 in your pants ! 🤦🏻‍♀️

Don’t be a dirt bag cheater

Then he shouldn’t have been a cheating pig! Let that be a lesson to cheaters! You ruin lives.

So while he was running around the world putting his penis in strange women, he never thought "Hey, I wonder if this might lead to a divorce for me."

You feel bad for kids. Dude you cheated HELLO. Keep it moving your a disgrace as a lil man

Oh please now you want Gwen’s attention in your life? Give it up

Such a jerk

Well, he should have kept his pecker in his pants. That was his choice.

Well maybe he shouldn't have been a whore!

Well, you f’d the babysitter. Pretty sure that was not in your marriage vows! Idiot! She is much better now than she was when she was with him.

"I never thought id ever get divorced" he almost said "I thought she put up with it and stay for the sake of the kids cause he feels bad for them how stupid is he

Cheater . She’s happy. Let it be .

Yeah, it would have been nice if you didn't stick your d inside your nanny! Then maybe you wouldn't have any shame?

Should have kept your penis in your pants . You caused the break up of your marriage and now you’re crying about a lost connection with your kids . You didn’t just cheat on Gwen , you cheated on your 3 kids .

Helps if you keep your penis in your pants too

Sir we do not give a flying fck what u have to say.

Cheaters always come back to play the victim! Boy bye Go on and join in with Jimmie Allen, I’m sure they can be cheating besties!

He’s a cheating sack of ugly it’s no wonder she left

You f U — t someone else, a lot!

These things tend to happen when you’re at dirty Cheater

Ya CHEATER!

Right… while he was banging the nanny

Makes me so sad... What a moron cheating on her. ESP with a downgrade.

Cheaters deserve the worst

While then you shouldn’t have cheated! Loser

Perhaps if you’d kept your pecker in your pants things would be different. I’m glad for Gwen that she’s found so much happiness and rebuilt a beautiful home. The divorce must have been a painful time for her

You never deserved Gwen you pos

Cheaters always try to find an excuse to play the victim

===

Just wanted to post the hidden ones here in case they get deleted, although screenshots look better...it reminds me of when Gibson was deleting every facebook comment roasting ML in their ad last year. All of the comments were pure gold, did anyone happen to screenshot them before they got deleted? They were so funny. It feels good when people get what they deserve.

Even though it can never take away the pain that BG suffered, it's nice to see so many people on the side of TRUTH and not falling for lies and manipulation.

PLEASE READ

I don't usually post things like this, but this is kid of important to please read until the end.

The Kosa bill (Kids online safety act) was brought into the Senate today at 10am. If you don't know, this bill will cause websites that include features of Lgbtq content, race, political views, and history to be censored. Apps such as Tumblr, Wattpad, A03, Tiktok, Instagram, Facebook, etc. Will one be censored having to put a form of id in to use that app. But if you're able to access it because you're over 18, you can't say anything that the government seems as 'harmful' to younger kids. And two they will be completely wiped. So deleted. That would mostly be Tumblr, Wattpad and a03.

This bill is insane because it censors off thing's children need to learn and it would share what they do on their devices to their parents. YOu can't learn about religon be because it's censord off, yiu can't learn how to get out of an abusive household because it's censored off. And you can't even use the internet to find out history...?

It is unsure if the bill has passed or not yet. If it did, it will go into hearing in September. I think we are only on stage 2 or 3 of getting the pill passes and passing it is stage 5 so we still have stime to stop it.

2 senators did speak out against it though today which is super good. That means we are making progress to stopping the bill. I'll update when I find out if it's going onto the higher floors.

if you want to stop this CALL YOUR SENATORS AND SIGN PETITIONS!! I have done both and they are the easiest thing ever I promise. I'm going to put the @ of a tiktoker who has a linktree to this bill where you can sign petitions and call senators.

Please call senators, please. Don't say you're too scared because you're going to be talking with an intern okay? There are many scripts out there as well that can help you say what you need to say.

Stop! Have you checked your phone’s ad privacy settings recently? No? Here’s a guide. It’s from 2022 but I can confirm that as of November 2024 the Apple stuff is still correct.

Android:

Settings —> Privacy —> ads ���> delete advertising ID

On older versions you might not be able to delete the ID, but can reset it and there should still be a toggle to opt out: do both of those things!

iOS:

Two things to take care of, here. One) Apple already makes each app ask permission, but you can still tell it to just not even let them ask:

Settings —> privacy —> Tracking —> toggle off ‘allow apps to request to track’.

Two) settings —> privacy —> scroll riiiiiight down —> Apple advertising —> toggle off personalised ads.

Samsung:

Settings —> privacy —> Customisation services —> ‘stop customising all devices’

Xiaomi:

Settings —> passwords and security —> Authorisation & revocation —> toggle off ‘MSA’

Why it Matters

‘The ad identifier is a string of letters and numbers that uniquely identifies your phone, tablet, or other smart device. It exists for one purpose: to help companies track you.

Third-party trackers collect data via the apps on your device. The ad ID lets them link data from different sources to one identity you. In addition, since every app and tracker sees the same ID, it lets data brokers compare notes about you. Broker A can buy data from broker B, then use the ad identifier to link those two datasets together. Simply, the ad ID is the key that enables a whole range of privacy harms: invasive 3rd-party profiling by Facebook and Google, pseudoscientific psychographic targeting by political consultants like Cambridge Analytica, and location tracking by the U.S. military.

Sometimes, participants in the data pipeline will argue that the ad ID is anonymous or pseudo-anonymous, not “personally identifying” information, and imply that it does not pose a serious privacy threat. This is not true in practice. First, the ad ID is commonly used to help collect data that is obviously personally identifiable, like granular location data. If you can see where a person works, sleeps, studies, socializes, worships, and seeks medical care, you don’t need their email address to help identify them. And second, an entire industry exists to help trackers link ad IDs to more directly identifying information, like email addresses and phone numbers. In a vacuum, the ad ID may be anonymous, but in the context of the tracking industry, it is a ubiquitous and effective identifier.

Disabling this ID makes it substantially harder for most advertisers and data brokers to track you. These industries process data from millions or billions of users every day, and they rely on convenient technologies like the ad ID to make that kind of scale possible. Removing this tool from their toolbox will result in substantially less data that can be associated with you in the wild. It is not only beneficial to your privacy, it also makes the surveillance advertising industry less profitable.‘

hopelessness and satisfaction: the solution?

You know, humans are really interesting. They have so many ways to feel like they’ve accomplished something—to fulfill their thirst for destiny.

.

One of my favorite pastimes is browsing online marketplaces. I’ve always tried to limit my use of social media—initially out of paranoia, and these days more for the sake of having control over how I spend my time. As more people started spending more time online, especially since COVID, I sometimes felt left out. There were lots of times when I didn’t really have anything to do.

I think I started browsing marketplaces because I missed my car. I used to check eBay Kleinanzeigen and Facebook Marketplace religiously. Sometimes I was watching for parts I actually wanted to buy, waiting for a good deal. Other times, I was just looking at cars I liked, imagining what it would be like to own them, even when I knew I obviously wasn’t going to buy one. Sometimes it was just about spotting something rare or unusual and letting my imagination run.

Over time, it became more than cars. it could be watches, audio gears, or heck even electric fans or appliances i really like (especially old Braun designs). Occasionally id actually buy something, but 90% of the time, i really enjoy the act of browsing and finding and waiting for something.it was about the act of browsing. Finding, hunting, waiting. It became something I could also share with friends who had similar interests on these things. My car friends usually joke that every morning isn't complete without 20 rounds of lowballing people on the facebook marketplace HAHA

I’ve deleted Facebook now, partly because I realized their broken search function is designed to keep you browsing longer by feeding you unrelated results. Alas, i do understand now though, why lots of people like to do window shopping, or hunting for deals, etc. Most probably didn't even end up buying or acquiring anything, but the act of browsing itself is able to bring satisfaction for our weird human brain.

.

Now, going back from those anecdotal detours, I’ve been watching more Slavoj Žižek lately. I think its kind of a 360 degree moment for me because i finally realized how he talks about hopelessness, especially compared to when i read Camus.

I feel like the term "hopelessness" might feel a bit too ambiguous and would probably not give the right sentiment to most people about what i want to talk about. so maybe i would want to make an attempt to very shortly, incompletely, and probably incorrectly explain what "this" is

I’m naturally a very results-oriented person. I chose the high school i went to because i thought that i could be closer to my crush, as she wanted to go there. and when she finally didn't end up going, i needed to justify my reason being there, and finally put it on how i used the saved money from my scholarship to fund my crippling addiction for cars. That kept me going.

Beyond that, i always try to find the easiest way to achieve the same outcome. I used to joke with one of my best friends that the best way to live is "minimum effort, and maximum results". During the constant routine i had in high school, i learned to find ways to understand myself better, so that i could cut corners, do things fasters, and push the limits, albeit everything still within what I considered morally okay, which was a high standard. The key there is was. I used to have high standards lol

when i decided to go to Germany for my bachelors, it was also because it seemed like the path of least resistance. Its seemingly cheaper, it also gives me the freedom i wanted, and also it allows me to not do extra courses for an entrance exams. It really was easy life—and in the end i still managed to get myself into an Uni, a prestigious one in fact, so prestigious that its actually hard.

now i don't think that I'm particularly that smart of a person. i am really good at applying myself when i believe on something though. I think that's why i think i did quite well in school, or any other things i really like (like music, or idk making things, hyper-focusing on shit and stuffs). I don’t think I’m especially talented—but when I try, I usually meet the standards of what people call “good.” At least, I was usually satisfied with myself.

another thing of me is that i'm naturally an ambitious person and a chronic perfectionist. I always try to do the "right" thing—maybe out of self-righteousness, or maybe because doing bad things just makes me feel bad. And therefore i had BIG dreams. When i was a kid, i thought that the government sucks, and i used to want to be so rich, that my company can actually substitute any primary infrastructure needs the people actually needed, but then do it in a better and proper way. growing up, i found out that, uh long story short, thats not exactly the best thing to do, but even in early uni, i still dreamed to maybe live in a small community in the middle of nowhere, trying to contribute to the community and making it better by idk, making infrasturcture, teaching things, makiong new cultures thats construsctuvie or some shit like that, so that that community can be the perfect place i want to live in.

Oh, and yeah… in the back of my mind, I still thought maybe I’d get the girl I wanted.

As time went on, i find out that the real world isnt really rewarding like that. You can do the right thing and still get punished. You can try hard and still not be good enough. I’m not impervious to that—especially because I was proud, maybe even cocky and stubborn. But over time, those “punishments” really wear you down. You start to wonder if you're even cut out for it. I didn’t care what others said—but I never thought I could lose confidence in myself.

adding to it was the hopeless situation with you and all. And so, I did what I do best—try to justify why I’m here in Germany, thousands of miles from my car, from you, from my friends. I leaned into my big dreams again, but that wasn’t enough. I tried turning to God, but even then—every time I managed to turn things around, something completely unexpected would come and smash me again. It feels like voodoo at this point. I wouldn’t be surprised if someone I offended gave me jampi-jampi or something. I mean—when I was in Indonesia for just a week, my dad’s car broke the first day I rode in it, an exhaust fan nearly fell on my head while I was showering, and I got locked in my own bathroom. It’s so stupid it’s almost comical.

i mean those things are funny, sure—but the more serious stuff really takes a toll. I keep losing, and losing, and losing everything I had. It feels like I’m getting further and further from what I was trying to achieve—to the point where I’m not even sure what I want to achieve anymore.

if there was any one big goal at the end of whatever this fucking life is, firstly im not really sure i could or would be able or want to achieve it in this rate, and secondly even if i do, its probably not going to be exactly what i was expecting anyway.

that, to me, is hopelessness. i cant bring myself anymore to have such goals—because it’ll just disappoint me.

.

Recognizing this, i found out, needs a lot of courage. i used to try to run from this thoughts, from myself, as i thought that i wouldnt be able to live without a good reason. the concept of releasing and letting go of any grandious reason at the end of life runs against the nature of my own conscience, nor the nature of the environment i grew up in. trying to find the middle ground about this and religion is one of the hardest thing to figure out for me. it took me a long time to try to process this, and even harder to get myself in this state of mind like, permanently. it scares me to shit, as it goes against my nature to live in this way.

funnily enough the concept comes to me from those Sisyphus memes from idk, few months ago, or years? idk man social media is fucked, and i no longer have a sense of time other than whats current. i started to hyperfixate on knowing the meaning behind it, and ending up reading lots of albert camus. not really the best way to introduce oneself to any kinds of philosophy about existentialism. from him, i try to learn about what i feel, and finding a name to put on it. hopelessness. i try to learn his reasoning and such, how its futile to try to understand everything, its futile to live on "false hopes", and how you should instead pursue yourself to fight this "absurdism". its a really good concept. what was dangerous for me was that his resolve is really ambiguous and abstract, especially as someone like me who dont have a fucking retention span longer than a goldfish.

so now this sentiment of life i have, i dont really know how to live with it, and im glad it stayed like that for a while, as it helps me understands the concept and accepts it more wholly. its like being a meat being marinated and cured deeply.

It also feels really lonely. Like I’m the only one fighting this kind of battle. I know I’m not—logically—but sometimes it feels like I’m broken. i know its not the case and the world is much more greyer compare to how black and white i thought it was, but it comes to my mind often whether i could one day ever confide about these things to anyone i cared about. small tangent, you know, when youre lonely, you start to question yourself more and more. you start to dissect and enumerate and wonder about every little things, trying to remember things and trying to figure out how things work and where you went wrong. in hindsight, im really glad i went through that, as i ended up learning about myself. i learned how much of a self righteous asshole i am, and accepted that. also learned some of what i did wrong, and how i wanted to act going on forward.

i tried to live like that for a while, but then you got married, and it kicked a funny bone in my heart—and something in me broke again. Deep down, I still hoped. That hope felt so fundamental that it just wrecked me. I hadn’t even been thinking about you that much lately. (Well—not much doesn’t mean zero. Probably just the “normal” amount, the same amount I think about the Roman Empire more or less)

So, being broken again, I went back to my usual cycle of trying to find answers. This time, I found more of Slavoj Žižek. one thing you should know about him is that, hes probably the fucking weird kid in class, who sniffles and snorts a lot, very awkward, not "conventionally" attractive and like just strange in general. even he himself admits that his countrymen, probably all of them hate him. and yet, the fact that he had 2 models ex-wifes always amazed me.

But here’s the thing—he seems like someone who’s figured things out. And yet he’s not “happy” with how things are. He’s a self-proclaimed communist. He hates capitalism. He hates how the world works. Actually, I believe that most of his early work ponders more about those kinds of things, but a lot of people—myself included—really value his off remark attitude toward life instead.

He knows he can’t make the world fully communist. He knows his efforts are futile. He doesn’t expect his work to reshape the world. And yet, he still lives for himself. Still works hard—even into his 70s.

That’s why I like Žižek. He still gives it his best, despite knowing how pointless it is. He keeps up with the news. Stays in touch with modern culture. He’s relatable. His analogies actually make sense for someone with a small brain like me.

he once pointed out a good analogy once. During COVID, he praised the medics—not because they could stop the pandemic, but because they still did their job anyway. They knew the virus would still spread. They knew it was kind of “futile.” But they did it anyway—because it was the right thing to do. Not for medals. Not for recognition. Just because it was their job. And in that he implies, they found satisfaction.

Which brings me back to window shopping. Humans, thankfully, can find satisfaction in doing the work. In enjoying the process. That’s something Žižek lives by. Same with Sartre, who rejected the Nobel Prize because he didn’t want his work to feel like it had a “goal.” He wanted to keep enjoying the act of creating itself.

.

okay, now that we have that established, i was still not sure on how to really apply myself to do these things. i dont.. really have a good way to explain this since im still figuring things out myself, but im going to tell you a story.

im currently working for a PR team on an institute at my uni. i work in a small team, currently of 4 person including my boss, lets call him simon.

now simon, in my mind, is a very high functioning individual. i’ve learned a lot from him—how to stay constructive, not complain, even when justified. Because complaints don’t fix problems. basically trying to have a mindset of "if you can do anything, fix it, if you cant, then dont think about it". i also learn a lot to be able to have composures so that i can function more as a human, eventhough in the end i probably dont manage that much.

now lately, work has been hard. we have a big project going on, and simon kind of messed things a bit up by not hiring people early enough, so now quite a lot of the work for the team fell at me. it also doesnt help that the administration messed up my salary—so now im currently being underpaid quite a lot, and as im very reason oriented (money baby), deep down i get kinda fed up sometimes, eventhough i still do the job in the end.

a few weeks ago, we were preparing ourselves to present our work on like, the top boss of the institute. simon said that he will manage to do the presentations, and asked me to finish some final changes we have until friday. the presentation was on wednesday and we had one final meeting on tuesday. and so i did just that

tuesday came, and simon presented how the presentation is going to be. out of my expectations, he actually did like, a lot of preparations for it. i thought he was only going to make slides, but turns out not only that he managed to slim down the initial presentations, but also make like very complex and tedious shits to go along with it other than just the slides. he has this spreadsheets detailing how EVERY page is arranged, and like a visual overview in a mock up software we have. It was as good as I could imagine it, probably even better!

the thing is, i know how busy simon is. i know how our works is just one tiny bit in his very tight and busy schedule, and yet he still strive to do his best on this presentation. That’s one of the thing that I admire about him—not just being responsible, but giving his best effort despite everything.

well, going back to Žižek, his attitude on always trying to be on the top of his game is also in a sense the same thing i guess. I know Simon really enjoys designing and making shits like that. Maybe that’s what drives him.

.

So the lesson is:

Seek to enjoy the process. Everything is goalless. But humans are built to cope by finding joy in the process itself. Do whatever you're passionate about. Be responsible. Be mindful. Do your best—because the act itself matters.

I guess…

Threads, Meta's new social media app, has signed up 100 million new users less than a week since its launch last Wednesday, making it the fastest-growing app in history.

Like other social media apps, users probably barely scanned − or skipped − the terms and conditions for what information Threads can collect, share and sell about them.

Meta probably already had a lot of information about users because Threads is built upon its Instagram platform.

Start the day smarter. Get all the news you need in your inbox each morning.

So how much does Threads already know about you, and what can it do with that data? Here are a few reasons to be concerned about your privacy.

What information does Threads collect?

Social media platforms monetize user data by selling relevant ads based on your location and activity, but, along with the usual app privacy requests like browsing history and location data, Threads also asks for financial information, health and fitness data, diagnostics and a nefarious-sounding "sensitive info."

Many users have voiced concern over Threads for its 14-point list of data permissions you're granting Meta to use the app. Twitter, by comparison, has 10 of these.

"I would say it's at the outer boundaries of what's usually expected, which is to be expected from its connection to Facebook, a brand long known for being especially hungry to take in user data and commercialize it in different ways," says Dan Ackerman, the new editor-in-chief at Gizmodo, a leading technology, science and culture news publication.

Android users can toggle off some of the data requests from the app, while the Apple App Store is "more take-it-or-leave it," Ackerman said.

"It also doesn't help that there's no browser-based fully functional version of Threads right now, and so you have to use the app version," he said.

Meta declined my request for comment and clarification.

Is Threads data collection worse than Twitter?

It's not necessarily malicious, suggests Tim Bajarin, a veteran technology analyst and Chairman of the San Jose, California-based market research firm Creative Strategies. "Users should know this Threads data list is pulled directly from Instagram, and it's all tied to their advertising engine when they start to monetize Threads.  

"When you sign off on financial info, for example, they're not looking at your bank statements or anything," Bajarin said.

Rather, Threads collects what you're posting about and liking, where you are, and whether you bought something through a third-party site, app or game you logged into using your connected Facebook/Instagram ID (usually to avoid creating a new password altogether).

Bajarin said users are granting Meta access for future advertising.

"Meta isn't giving you a free app out of the goodness of their heart − they're there to make money, which is mostly from advertising."

Threads can collect and save this information, and the data can also be shared with third-party services that connect to your Threads profile.

Can you deactivate Threads?

Yes, but you cannot delete it without also deleting Instagram, Bajarin said.

"Meta built (Threads) on the Instagram infrastructure, on top of the program itself, and so it would be very difficult to uninstall one and not both – at least the way it's engineered today. ... They could eventually be spun out to be completely separate apps," Bajarin said.

To deactivate (but not delete) your Threads account, Adam Mosseri − the Instagram boss who now spearheads the Threads app – says you can choose to hide your Threads profile and content, delete individual Threads posts and set your profile to private, as reported by USA TODAY contributor Jennifer Jolly.

"Threads is powered by Instagram, so right now it's just one account, but we're looking into a way to delete your Threads account separately,” he posted.

Ackerman said the fact Threads is built on Instagram is actually a boon for Meta and users, "as it's especially easy to sign up for, has no wait list, and is simple to use." But "in order to delete your Threads account after you sign up, you’ll need to delete your Instagram account, as well, which reminds me of the difficulty people had deleting their Facebook accounts in the past, and how there was a lot of fine print about what data Facebook would keep unless you jumped through extra hoops."

Is the Threads app safe?

Threads is asking for more permissions than Twitter, so it boils down to your comfort level.

Though some of the privacy permissions seem ludicrous – granting Threads access to health and activity data and other "sensitive info" on a smartphone just seems wrong – no one is forcing users to install and use Threads or any other social media app that monetizes its free platform by delivering personalized, contextual ads to you.

Threads is available in more than 100 countries, but perhaps it's no surprise it isn't available in the Europe Union just yet: Meta was forced to pay more than $400 million by EU regulators for forcing users to accept targeted ads.

Personally, I am using and enjoying Threads quite a bit but wish there was more clarity about how my data is collected and used. And I'm disappointed Meta declined to clarify things.

I select "Ask not to track" on all iPhone apps to reduce an app's visibility into my web browsing activity, and I have a virtual private network (VPN) on my computer for extra privacy, but perhaps it's true there is nothing truly free in this world – it's just up to each person to decide whether the cost is worth it.
