A lot of people dislike it for the privacy nightmare that it is and feel the threat of an EEE attack. This will also probably not be the last time that a big corporation will insert itself in the Fediverse.

What a lot of posts have in common is that they want some kind of action to be taken, whether it’d be mass defederating from Threads, or accept them in some way that does not harm the Fediverse as much.
Aren’t the privacy concerns about threads so bad they can’t release it in Europe?

EU blocked the app yes, because it gathers a lot of data from the user of the app.
Not the website/service in general though.
