Threads' New Terms & Conditions Affects the Fediverse
wedistribute.org
Threads, Meta's new microblogging platform, is updating its terms to focus on data collection from "Third Party Users".

This shouldn’t come as a huge surprise. Meta is moving forward with their plans for Theads and the Fediverse, and their adjusted terms reflect a new impending reality for Fediverse users.

    Ok, that was my experience. I haven’t found a great context/use case for it yet.

    It does seem a client could be made that uses the functionality. Or a purpose deployed instance or community could make use of it too.

    But I agree, it’s hard to imagine a good use. And your point still stands about how panicking is unhelpful.
