Anyone who creates a Facebook Libra account and puts money in it and uses it to buy stuff/for transactions should have their fucking voting rights removed and be submitted to a mental health institution.

Just my personal opinion.

Anyone who creates Facebook account. Period.

Also my personal opinion 😉

@fonfi Fair point, although I'd say this for Google accounts as well 😉

@fonfi sometimes you're forced to make one for business or other reasons (housing group, student association etc.)
Other than that, yeah, I agree.

If only it comes to get release, well I guess there will be positive repercussion on crypto sphere so I'm fine with that.

Libra looks like a project from the crypto hype time that too much money got invested into and now cant be killed.

@JFK422 Libra can be killed easily compared to any crypto as it is run by a company which have to be regulated. You can't regulate or shutdown crypto, unless internet censorship

@fonfi

Anyone who...

@RememberMe I don't agree that that'd be forced, I think that's up to choice but it depends on how hard that choice would be.

This was fucking too harsh! Man!

@RememberMe I agree with you

No idea what libra is but I as long as we are talking about staying away from the Shithole agree with you.

@netikras A new "cryptocurrency" by Facebook.

@linuxxx Google makes fuckin' good software that "just works" and protects you from everyone except itself. I know, I trade my privacy for this, but it's an okay deal.

@raffaels-blog I agree with this too unfortunately, I’ve accepted my information overlords into my heart and life.

They should be sent to rehab

@Eunit Welcome to devRant and my opinions, I guess :)

Which part exactly?

@raffaels-blog Good is subjective as people can define good in different ways.

I'd rather not use anything which doesn't give a fuck about user privacy, literally tries to gather as much data on everyone as possible and is integrated within at least one illegal government powered mass surveillance network.

If it wasn't for recaptcha, I'd block Google on firewall level. (Same for Facebook, Microsoft and a few others)

@linuxxx Well, good except for what you just described.

@ewpratten is that grammarly incorrect?

@RememberMe there's this FB product called "workplace". It's just a private FB for organizations.

Also:

Pizza is the most delicious thing ever.

Just my personal opinion.

@linuxxx I actually agree with you, I absolutely detest Facebook and would be glad to see the service shut down. But a lot of people don't think that way, sadly. Kinda like being forced to stay on WhatsApp because my family and some friends, and class groups etc. refuse to switch to an alternative because WA is just "convenient".

@telephantasm pizza ftw, funnily enough I just had one

it is ironic that facebook tracks users for profit & now claims to have a cryto lol

but i guess it's not THAT ironic since crypto is fairly easily traced by the NSA anyhow...

anyone who believes crypto is anonymous is retarded

People still use Facebook?

@linuxxx Why do you say that?

Agree but I believe we need something libra but from another organization. Like something by Elon Musk would interest me.

Facebook is good for businesses. So uhh... Oof???

@mellowmymind A little late but what exactly?
