Well-intentioned people: let's wait and see if #Threads is, for example, a privacy nightmare
Facebook: we're not launching in Europe yet because right now it would be illegal

EU my beloved
The article title is a little misleading, it’s not being banned, Meta have just decided to launch Threads in US and UK only for the moment.
“it is understood that the DPC has not actively blocked the service. Instead, the tech giant has not yet prepared the service for a European launch outside the UK”
it will collect a wide variety of data from users, including health, financial information, browsing histories, location, purchases, contacts, search history and sensitive information.
How do you block an app from accessing browsing/search history/purchase?

Lol get rekt
"No Instagram" is always a good combination of words
So what happens once they start to federate? The app might be blocked in the EU (or not launch there at all) but they still get access to EU citizen data through AP.
