I’ve been a social media hermit for the past 3 years but recently I’ve given up and created a few accounts across different apps again. It’s unreal how strict the requirements are now.
- Give e-mail (ok)
- Give phone number (… eeh, ok)
- Use the new account for a while
- Account suspended, please upload selfie to continue (no thanks xi). There are also some verification promps where you have to record a video and rotate your face left to right
If this isn’t a message to move to indie web I don’t know what is
Note that the people verifying that picture are not the people who set the policies or systems in place. You abused an innocent who’s just trying to earn some bread, you didn’t send NSFW materials to Zuck.
I mean its not like i send some gore pictures or anything. The person on the end probably got some good chuckles about it. Eh, its harmless joke. You dont have to think about it too much.
Are there actually people in the loop? Are you sure it’s not all bots? It’s not like they will communicate with you at all about your ban aside from template emails.
Not any of our problems; if you willfully work for Meta after everything that has come out about them, you’re a scab against the people and shouldn’t be regarded past that point. Fuck should I care about techbros who wouldn’t know solidarity if it popped out of a manhole and blew a new hole in their ass for?
No one verifying images for meta is a techbro. That’s indonesian work.
I doubt those people even know they work for Meta. They probably work at an agency which does this for multiple services, not only Facebook and they probably have that job because they can’t get a better one. It isn’t even unheard of for this to be done by kidnapped people in captivity. Sending provoking material doesn’t do anything meaningful other than make those peoples’ day worse, and chances are it’s already pretty close to hell on earth.
WTF‽ They are trying to stay alive, not murder your parents!
Do you think they are well paid or something? If you have an income, they likely earn 100 times less or something.
Seriously what the fuck is wrong with users on some instances?
Still not my problem; my man you should not be talking about jobs and who holds 'em when Amerika is looking at a job shortage because of all the offshoring. I said what I said with my whole chest; if you work for them in any form, facility, or function, or uplift those who do, I consider you an opp
