Of course the story is meh. It's the lack of response for advertisers that is the real story. It goes to prove that their "outrage" about Musk is utter horseshit and is just politically motivated. I'm sure the complete lack of response to this by Media Matters and the advertisers they steer will be discussed in the X vs. Media Matters lawsuit.

FB's DEI officer stole $4M from the company.
Considering what a scam DEI has been shown to be, her salary should be lumped on top of the $4M.

Anyone besides me affected by today's outage?

I was on FB for a hot minute this morning with no issues, and then again once I saw there was an issue. So, I must be immune to their outage.

GF's daughter had her account hijacked a few weeks ago (facebook support: sorry, we can't prove you're not actually the person in pakistan who changed your password!), so for a minute i thought I had been hit, too.

FB and IG are easily the worst of the social media platforms:
-TikTok allows disinformation and divisive campaigns against U.S. citizens at the behest of the Chinese government, but FB/IG does it for our own government.
-TikTok has started trying to crack down on cloned accounts, accounts created to pretend to be an original creator by stealing all of their content, FB/IG doesn't give a fuck.
-FB is considered for "the olds" and its content algorithm is a nightmare. My feed is always filled with the same dozen people and their posts are from days ago. My friend list is over 200 people or something, yet I only ever see posts from a dozen.
-The kids hate IG too, but I have less knowledge about why. I know I've never been a big user of it.

Seems weird to me that when one accesses these services from the same town in Iowa for 7 years, logging in from there 99.9999% of the time, that it's a big, insurmountable leap of logic that maybe they shouldn't allow the password to be changed from Asia at 3am your local time when you last logged in in Iowa 3 hours prior.
They would need absolute einstein-level systems analysts to crack that nut.

They legitimately do not give a fuck.
Twitter has MFA. Why the hell doesn't FB? No other platform has their users' accounts hacked like FB.

I just called FB out publicly on FB over this. I like to imagine Bezos balling his HGH-veiny fists in anger.

I just confused Bezo and Zuckerberg, heh.
I was talking about Prime earlier with my kid, saying I'd cancelled it, and Bezos would have to fund his shitty, 2nd tier space program without me. So he was in my brain.

Those are called "impossible travel logins" and should easily be flagged.GORDON wrote: ↑Tue Mar 05, 2024 1:38 pm Seems weird to me that when one accesses these services from the same town in Iowa for 7 years, logging in from there 99.9999% of the time, that it's a big, insurmountable leap of logic that maybe they shouldn't allow the password to be changed from Asia at 3am your local time when you last logged in in Iowa 3 hours prior.
However, VPNs and various ISPs can cause false positives.

A - "It isn't fair for this person with XY chromosomes to fight in a XX chromosome sport."
2 - "But she was born a girl!"
A - Yeah I know but it still is an unfair genetic advantage.
2 - But she's a female on her passport!
A - Yes.... I know.... but it is still an unfair genetic advantage.
2 - It's just some high testosterone and the IOC said it was fine!
A - No... it isn't just high-T, and a different governing body banned these people just last year after running gender tests. It isn't fair if they went through puberty with XY chromosomes, moreso if they had high-T levels at the time.
2 - They were born with vaginas! They are girls! You are transphobic!
A - Well, in the first place, you were saying two weeks ago that genitals doesn't determine gender and men could get pregnant and stuff. Are you changing your position? And I didn't say anything about transexuals, I said, and I have always said, it's all about genetics. They have an unfair advantage and shouldn't be dunking on XX women. It isn't fair.
2 - But they were beaten by other women before!
A - Well, I was born a man. Went through the Marines as a man. And I've met a few women who could whoop my ass, probably. That doesn't mean I should be competing against women in sports.
2 - But there is no unfair advantage! They are women!
A - Ok. So let's go ahead and show the genetic test and put this to bed completely.
2 - No! That's unfair! A test is unwarranted! You're just a homophobic sexist transphobe! And you're moving the goal posts!
A - I'm not sure if that combination of insults is possible, but whatever. It's always been about the genetics, and that's been my position from the beginning. Instead of continuing this argument with a stupid person I'll just block all instances of the words "Imane" and "Khalef," and leave you in your fantasyland where it's cool for genetic males to beat the shit out of women on TV. Here's how I did it:

But it doesn't work, I'm still getting a half dozen posts about it in my feed. I block the groups, but there seems to be an infinite number of them.
