either that, or SERIOUSLY bad PR....however. I did have some of these concerns quelled by the CEO of a completely different company. 🤦♂️
Mike McCue, CEO of Flipboard, had a talk with me yesterday about how it might be a data law issue. Like GDPR, there are a few different data laws around the world that companies have to deal with that are a legal nightmare.
Meta isn't operating Threads in the EU right now for this very reason, however, they are still operating in California which has CCPA. here's a link to that discussion. https://flipboard.social/@mike/112317517766956422
I'm still not dealing with Meta after their interaction because why didn't they just answer like Mike? Seems like a pretty simple, straight forward answer that I can understand completely.
