Automatically creating a shadow account for everyone on Instagram?

Even allowing people to follow that account?

Sounds like they really wanted to push Threads out the door in a big way.

Have you ever heard of a little thing called coercion? False choice? Emotional blackmail?

To pretend that it’s a straightforward choice is downright asinine.

They have something that people need. Not kinda want. NEED. They know this and they’re using that leverage to make people agree to things that they never would otherwise. It may technically be legal, but it’s extremely unethical and nowhere near an unencumbered choice.

Do you get it now? If not, that’s too bad. I can explain it to you, but I can’t understand it for you.

Err… no they don’t.

I think you need to brush up on the definitions of “want” and “need,” lol.
