Meta is banning discussion of the 'Network State' concept; a Silicon Valley Oligarch-funded idea to replace American democracy with corporate government.

www.usermag.co Meta rep flagged 'critiques of tech industry figures' as 'sensitive or controversial content'

Meta said that the journalist "should never have received this response," but the incident set off a wave of concern over censorship online.

Everyone needs to GTFO facebook. We can hardly do it because every other HOA and School PTA is there, but we get stop using messenger and stop having personal discussions over there.
- Contact those places and ask for an alternative -the less people participate the quieter the discussions the more likely they are to at least try to switch over if they start feeling some pressure.
  
  I agree that it needs to happen but contacting these places and asking them for an alternative is a lot like contacting a deep sea tube worm and asking it to learn brain surgery.
  They're probably capable of moving from one social platform to another, But it's a lot of work and they're destroying their network every time so they're highly resistant.
  If Apple wasn't such a pain in the ass about notification services We could probably crowdsource NTFY and let everyone use it for schools non-profits and such
  The best we could expect us for them to move to Blue sky. Health in my case half of them just recently moved off Twitter.
- Yeah, I dumped facebook right after the election but unfortunately most of my friends and family are only on WhatsApp.
  
  WhatsApp is a serious problem. There are quite a number of countries that are running a lot of their business through it.
- I was fortunate that my partner never used Facebook, so I got to hold "communication with their sibling/child" over their heads and get the family chat onto signal. That was my last thing I had to do before I could delete my account
  The most fun was sending a message to each of the Facebook friends: hi (name) I'm deleting my Facebook account, if you want to contact me online I can be reached on signal at (signal ID)
  
  My wife and I were on Facebook Messenger a lot. Then she started pointing out every time we would talk about any topic she would get ads for it. I talked her into using signal.
  We added the teenager into it, now the only serious problem I have is the little one could stand to be on the family chat in signal but he doesn't have a phone number.
  I tried making an account for him with my Google voice number, for some reason it refused on his Wi-Fi only tablet. So I made him an account using my real phone number, then remade my account using my Google voice number on my phone which worked, But now his signal account flips back and forth between his name and my name and it's just very confused. It's good enough but I wish there was some way you could do signal without having to do a phone number. Especially a sub account for kids you know...
  
  I thought I heard recently about signal allowing a different ID system, but I think that's about not having to share your phone number, as against them IDing you with a phone number which I expect they will keep doing
  
  signal allowing a different ID system
  It used to surface your number to all your contacts, now they only see your handle.
  Still have to use a phone number to sign up.
