Yes, I agree. My point was left v. Right or anything like that. I was just pointing out that it's another label I've seen thrown out label I've seen thrown out there in the last few years when trying to discredit people.

I guess my point didn't come off they way I meant it looking at all of these replies.

It was a good faith comment, I'm merely pointing out another tactic that the powers that be try to use to discredit people. I'm not comparing pedophilia allegations against being called a far right extremist. I'm just pointing out it's a separate tactic.

I guess I wasn't too clear on that, wasn't expecting these sorts of replies.

Fallout 1 and 2. I've played them so many times over the decades. FF7 and Baldurs gate 1&2 are others I've done a few times.

I like how they don't mention closing and deleting the sub as an action. It's all about removing mods. What will they do, install their own mods if the whole team tells them to suck it?

I'm sure most are real, but am curious as to how many bots there are in the amount.

I'm thinking in terms of the future.They'll have profit incentives to find ways acquire whatever data they can profit from. While they may not be able to do certain things now, companies like this chip away bit by bit in the long term.

With their incentives, resources, and prior behavior, I'm not certain what they can add would be worth whatever the positive result of their profit making activity.

Edits: spelling.

Meta and other big for profit players in social media have a bad history. Privacy, ads, profits at all cost. The people concerned about this early on are basing it off the previous behaviors of these companies.

I feel like it's a good and early immune response.

Not everyone has strength of conviction he does. Companies look for the weak link, how can they buy off or stroke the ego of.

Adding some T&C's in as OP suggested could be a good idea. Sure they can ignore it, but it'd be good to put in as many road blocks as possible to prevent the enshitification attacks that will eventually come in the distant future.

Wonder if Google, Apple, or SoC makera are asked or secretly mandated to leave certain backdoors in. I know mobile providers have quite a bit they can see on their end.

It's a good thing we're always presented with two choices for everything, like mobile OS's, to control our choices like we're toddlers.

Hopefully they leave the free features as is, and don't starting going down the road many other companies have to squeeze out profit.

I had already stopped buying their products a few years ago because of similar moves. I didn't write that I would stop buying ar future, not yet launched product based on this specific article.
