Dear EU, please pull the plug of TikTok, X, Facebook, Instagram... the world would be better without these shitholes. We were fine before these existed, and we will survive without them. Greetings from Portugal, EU

You can't solve this. Instead, schools should teach about misinformation and how to do a your own research the right way. Llts of people don't have this skill (or just a skill on how to use Internet).

Just switch them all off. The future is the Fediverse. Don't feed these greedy corporations that spread hate and are harming the world. Vote with your wallet. Abandon. Boycott. Etc. :-)

Disinformation can and does spread on the fediverse too. The only way to stop it is to teach people how to validate information.

Your shot missed the target. I never had an account on any of those shitholes, either.
