Don't you know that you're toxic... Meta goes from ghosting to gaslighting.
After our direct action last week, Meta is now replying to 10k requests to opt out of Stalker Ads.
And it's a fudge... they talk about not using personal data for some direct marketing. But don't mention targeted ads!

in reply to Open Rights Group • • •Meta profits by using your personal data for advertising.
By crunching your data into profiles, you become a target for advertisers and a cash cow for Meta.
Their latest attempt to claim to have honoured people's opt out request while ignoring the actual issue is shady stuff.

Meta even admitted they must respect this right when they settled Tanya O’Carroll's case against them.
So why gaslight the rest of us?
