As you are as well by being on Lemmy. Just stop with the fear mongering. You claim ads. I don't see ads. The goal posts keep moving.
I didn't claim ads, someone else did.
Also Lemmy isn't a company, it's just a group of enthusiats linking their servers together.
I am not fear mongering. These are facts, you are contributing to a billionaire that has no good plans for you. You are participating in that. Your data, location, and conversations are tracked. Those are facts.
I honestly don't see how I'm contributing to anything when I'm running Whatsapp with tracking turned off. Those are facts.
