I plan to also delete FB and Instagram during the blackout to send a clear message and give gifts of cash this year to promote use at local businesses instead of shopping online.

We're Not Asking
We're shutting it down

MASS BLACKOUT
Nov. 25 - Dec. 2

The largest economic blackout protest in U. S. history begins November 25th!

•No Events
•No Projects
•No Restaurants
•No Spending
•No Work

NO BACKING OUT!!!
Prepare Ahead For the Impact!

To prevent "spike spending" before and after the blackout, we ask that all participants purchase goods from community-owned stores and markets leading up to and after the dates. This helps with sustained impact and keeps our money out of the mega-businesses pockets.

Coordinated National Pushback, Maximum Local Impact.

Meta is the Internet version of the Nation Enquirer. If the National Enquirer were able to track everything each reader read.

In addition to the countless scam ads that #Meta generates billions from, there are also millions of people posting AI videos like this one, getting engagement based on things that don’t even exist. People react to these videos as though they were real. This one even has the #Sora watermark.

Meta, Meta, Meta. So Meta. This Reuters report is 🔥

"Meta is earning a fortune on a deluge of fraudulent ads, documents show"

"Meta projected 10% of its 2024 revenue would come from ads for scams and banned goods, documents seen by Reuters show. And the social media giant internally estimates […]

#meta entscheidet mal wieder bei #Instagram, was gesagt werden darf und was nicht. Hier machen Menschen ihrem Frust darüber Luft, dass die transphobe Sängerin Róisín Murphy beim #NewFallFestival in @duesseldorf.bsky.social auftritt - keine Reaktion vom Veranstalter.

When you use Facebook and Instagram, you contribute to this. Your attention is Meta’s entire fortune. Look what they’re doing with it!

Don’t be an MDAU.
Don’t be selfish.

Like Apple, Twitter etc all these tech lord man babies are in deep with China (where repression and punishment of leakers is de riguere). If you think they will not use AI to close the circle, you are very mislead.
