🇬🇧Instagram wants to protect young people from self-harm, suicide, eating disorders with completely unreliable #uploadfilters? https://www.theguardian.com/technology/2024/jan/09/teenager-content-restriction-instagram-facebook

Hardly works, and the fundamental problems remain:
Surveillance capitalist business model, surveillance advertising, engagement-based and addictive timeline algorithms push agitation, anger and hate.

This is how we could really make "social media" safe:
☑️contextual ads instead of surveillance advertising
☑️real option to switch platforms (also to non-commercial networks) by mandating platform interoperability
☑️engagement-based timeline algorithms only on user request
☑️control over our timeline by introducing a right to use non-commercial and customizable external timeline algorithms that work for us and not for Zuckerberg's profit.

We must finally stop being big tech's product and become their users - that's what we #pirates stand up for!
