Bei Instagram haben wir jetzt bekannt gegeben, dass wir die Plattform nicht mehr aktiv nutzen werden. Vor allem weil wir durch den Algorithmus dort quasi unsichtbar geworden sind. Dieser Beitrag, der das Ende ankündigt, hat dann plötzlich Reichweite bekommen. Weil er polarisiert. Leider wollen wir gar keine polarisierenden Dinge posten, sondern Infos zu Museen und Kultur-Themen teilen. Instagram findet das irrelevant. Also ist es nicht mehr der richtige Ort für uns… #fediverse #instagram

I know many people who are aware of the importance of #FreedomRespecting software, data, and culture - and the related issues of digital sovereignty and privacy.

Paradoxically, a lot of these people also participate in, or even maintain, communities hosted on #nonfree / #proprietary / #restricted or #centralized platforms like #Telegram, #Discord, #WhatsApp, #Signal, #Instagram, #Facebook, #Twitter, #LinkedIn, #Bluesky, #GitHub, and others.

To state the obvious, each community which chooses a proprietary platform - or bridges to it - is also giving another reason for others to be on that platform. It’s reinforcing network effect.

Conversely, if these communities chose to move to free platforms, their members would be forced to move as well. In other words, these communities have the opportunity to push for change on a massive scale.

Sure, you have to reach out to people on proprietary platforms, if that’s where the majority are. But you cannot be stopping there - you must have a strategy to move people away from proprietary platforms to free platforms.

To give the example of #OpenStreetMap -

I announce events on free platforms sooner
I remind people on proprietary platforms that they should join the free platforms to get notified earlier
After each event, we invite people to our #XMPP channel, which is not bridged to any other platform.
All organizational talk takes place on our XMPP channel, which is not bridged to any other platform.
I minimize my participation on proprietary platforms, and communities which bridge to them. The bulk of my activity happens on free platforms.
I have never submitted data to Mapillary or KartaView, because their clients and servers are proprietary. All my contributions go to #WikimediaCommons and #Panoramax.

So to the people who are choosing - and therefore promoting - proprietary platforms, I ask…

How do you think things are going to change, if everyone keeps choosing what is easiest for them, and keeps choosing, supporting, and promoting proprietary platforms?

What part are you playing in making things better? Or are you just going to go with the flow of the world, even if you know it to be wrong?

They don’t like answering these questions, but I invite them to find the integrity and courage to answer them all the same.

Or, to find the integrity and courage to make the obvious change and do the obvious right thing.

People hate it when I bring this up. Sorry, but my conscience dictates that I speak up for what is right. Silence is complicity, and it gets us nowhere.

You all are already using ad-blockers and tracking protection, and many don't use Meta's products, but still, just in case. "In a blog post on Tuesday, Meta explains that it already uses your off-platform activity, like the games you play or your purchases on other websites, to serve you ads. But now it’s expanding the scope of the content it personalizes across Facebook and Instagram." https://about.fb.com/news/2026/06/better-personalization-and-changes-to-controls-for-your-activity-from-other-businesses/ Via (paywalled) https://www.theverge.com/tech/946744/meta-website-activity-personalize-feeds (note the article has a broken link to Meta's announcement) #news #technology #TechNews #meta #facebook #instagram #privacy #security #surveillance #SurveillanceCapitalism

US Top News and Analysis | Meta is trying to sell AI agents to businesses in latest effort to diversify away from ads AI generated summary, Read the full article for complete information. Meta announced a new “Meta Business Agent,” an AI‑driven assistant that businesses can deploy across WhatsApp, Messenger and Instagram to answer customer queries, recommend products and schedule appointments. The tool will be offered through a subscription tier of the freshly launched Meta One package, extending the company’s push beyond its ad‑centric model—about 98 % of its revenue—to sell AI services to businesses of any size. CEO Mark Zuckerberg said the agent can provide real‑time competitive insights and, as Meta’s models improve, eventually help run whole operations. After a limited pilot earlier this year, the feature will be billed on a consumption basis for larger WhatsApp Business users and will integrate with third‑party platforms like Shopify and Zendesk, positioning Meta against rivals such as OpenAI, Amazon, Microsoft and Google in the fast‑growing AI‑agent market.

BBC News | Instagram AI chatbot tricked by hackers to give access to others' accounts AI generated summary, Read the full article for complete information. Instagram recently fixed a flaw in its AI‑powered support chatbot that hackers exploited to hijack user accounts by faking their location and requesting email changes, allowing them to reset passwords; the vulnerability was falsely linked to world‑leader hacks, though a verified Barack Obama account was indeed compromised and used to post pro‑Iran content before being recovered. Security researcher and former Meta employee Jane Manchun Wong confirmed her own account was altered without consent, highlighting concerns over AI‑driven security and the lack of human assistance for affected users. Meta announced the issue is resolved and impacted accounts are being secured, while criticism continues over the platform’s limited human support and its broader AI‑related data‑security challenges.

New, by me: A number of high-profile and/or valuable Instagram accounts, including those of the Obama White House and the Chief Master Sergeant for the U.S. Space Force, got hacked and defaced with pro-Iran messaging in the past 24h after people figured out that Meta's AI support assistant could be tricked into resetting account passwords. From the story: "A video released on Telegram by pro-Iran hackers claimed to document a remarkably simple exploit that appears to have involved using a VPN connection with an IP address that is in or near the target's usual hometown, requesting a password reset for the account, and then choosing to chat with Meta's AI support assistant. From there, the video shows the attacker told the bot to link the account in question to a new email address, after which the bot dutifully sent that address a one-time code that allowed a password reset." https://krebsonsecurity.com/2026/06/hackers-used-metas-ai-support-bot-to-seize-instagram-accounts/ #meta #instagram #hack #ai #security

US Top News and Analysis | Meta has struggled at selling anything other than ads. Will AI be different? AI generated summary, Read the full article for complete information. Meta is betting that artificial‑intelligence services can break its historic reliance on advertising by launching paid subscriptions for its Meta AI app and premium tiers for Instagram, Facebook and WhatsApp – initially in Singapore, Guatemala and Bolivia – while also hinting at a future cloud‑computing business that could pit it against Amazon, Microsoft and Google. The company’s first‑quarter earnings still showed that about 98 % of its $56.3 billion revenue comes from ads, but rapid AI growth and recent testing of AI‑driven features have spurred optimism that subscriptions could add up to $3 billion by 2027 and $16 billion by 2030, even though analysts note that past forays into hardware, crypto and enterprise tools have largely flopped and that building a competitive cloud platform will be challenging for a firm whose core strength lies in consumer‑direct advertising.

Sarà divertente riguardarlo sul grande schermo”. A introdurre l’evento sono stati Frédéric Moget, direttore generale di Paramount Pictures Francia, e Charles H. Rivkin, ceo della Motion Picture Association.

The Guardian | Meta profited from illegal scam ads, California county lawsuit alleges by Reuters AI generated summary, Read the full article for complete information. California’s Santa Clara County has filed a lawsuit against Meta Platforms, alleging the company profited from illegal scam ads on Facebook and Instagram in violation of the state’s false‑advertising and unfair‑business‑practice laws. The complaint, based on leaked internal documents, claims Meta earned up to $7 billion annually from “high‑risk” scam ads and that it largely tolerated such fraudulent advertising rather than broadly cracking down on it, even setting “guardrails” that limited anti‑scam measures when they threatened revenue. The county seeks restitution, civil damages, and an injunction to stop Meta’s alleged misconduct, accusing the firm of enabling middlemen to sell protected ad accounts, targeting users who previously clicked scam offers, and using generative AI to facilitate deceptive ads. Meta says it will defend itself, arguing the lawsuit misrepresents its anti‑scam efforts.

Il Fatto Quotidiano: Yamal prende una bandiera palestinese da un tifoso e la sventola sul bus scoperto: il gesto durante i festeggiamenti del Barcellona Sui social sono diventate virali le immagini di Lamine Yamal, giovane fenomeno 18enne del Barcellona che, durante i festeggiamenti della squadra per la vittoria del campionato spagnolo, ha sventolato una bandiera palestinese dal tetto del bus scoperto che trasportava i giocatori. Una delle immagini è stata condivisa dallo stesso Yamal sul suo profilo Instagram. La bandiera era di proprietà di un tifoso che seguiva la parata del bus: mentre il tifoso in questione la stava sventolando, Yamal gli ha chiesto di passargliela e ha poi deciso di mostrarla dal tetto del bus scoperto. Il calciatore – che oggi è alle prese con un infortunio – aveva già preso posizione su altri temi di attualità quando a marzo aveva condannato i cori islamofobi durante un’amichevole della nazionale spagnola contro l’Egitto. “Usare una religione come oggetto di scherno in campo vi rende delle persone ignoranti e razziste. Il calcio è per divertirsi, non per mancare di rispetto alle persone per ciò che sono o in cui credono”, aveva scritto allora sui social ricordando di essere musulmano. L'articolo Yamal prende una bandiera palestinese da un tifoso e la sventola sul bus scoperto: il gesto durante i festeggiamenti del Barcellona proviene da Il Fatto Quotidiano. Yamal takes a Palestinian flag from a fan and waves it on the open-top bus: the gesture during Barcelona celebrations. On social media, images of Lamine Yamal, a 18-year-old phenomenon from Barcelona who, during the team’s celebrations for winning the Spanish championship, waved a Palestinian flag from the roof of the open-top bus transporting the players, have gone viral. One of the images was shared by Yamal himself on his Instagram profile. The flag belonged to a fan following the bus parade: while the fan in question was waving it, Yamal asked him to pass it to him and then decided to display it from the roof of the open-top bus. The footballer – who is currently dealing with an injury – had already taken a stand on other current issues when in March he condemned islamophobic chants during a friendly match between the Spanish national team and Egypt. “Using a religion as a target of mockery on the field makes you ignorant and racist people. Football is for fun, not for disrespecting people for what they are or what they believe,” he wrote then on social media, remembering that he is Muslim. Yamal’s article shows the footballer taking a Palestinian flag from a fan and waving it on the open-top bus: the gesture during the Barcelona celebrations comes from Il Fatto Quotidiano. #Yamal #Palestinian #Barcelona #LamineYamal #Spanish #Instagram #Egypt #Muslim #IlFattoQuotidiano https://www.ilfattoquotidiano.it/2026/05/12/lamine-yamal-bandiera-palestinese-barcellona-video-palestina/8383609/

Il Fatto Quotidiano: “Dopo aver visto ‘Mare Fuori’, gli ho scritto su Instagram per dirgli che era bravissimo. Abbiamo iniziato a sentirci”: Katia Follesa sul fidanzato Vincenzo Ferrera Katia Follesa è impegnata con lo show “Comedy Match” sul Nove e nel frattempo si gode i momenti sereni della sua vita privata con il nuovo fidanzato il collega attore Vincenzo Ferrera. Un nuovo amore dopo la separazione dal marito Angelo Pisani, con il quale è rimasto in ottimi rapporti. “Tutti ci chiedono: come fate? Nel nostro caso abbiamo avuto la fortuna di guardare molto avanti e cercare di salvare quello che poteva essere salvato. Il nostro rapporto era speciale, andava oltre la relazione uomo-donna”, aveva commentato l’attrice a Il Corriere della Sera. In una intervista a F invece Follesa parla del suo nuovo amore, Vincenzo Ferrera: “Il cinema è il mio tallone d’Achille. Non lo rincorro, quando l’ho fatto ho capito che non ne sono capace. Quando lo vedo recitare lo trovo pazzesco: interpreta con tutte le parti del corpo. Ha studiato tanto, ha lavorato con grandi maestri”. Tutto è iniziato per la passione della figlia Agata per la serie tv “Mare Fuori”, dove Ferrera interpreta l’educatore Beppe Romano: “Suo papà Angelo e io all’inizio non volevamo che la vedesse, era un po’ violenta. Poi abbiamo deciso di guardarla tutti insieme: una puntata con lei e poi noi due proseguivamo con le altre. Entrambi eravamo d’accordo sul fatto che Vincenzo fosse tra gli attori più bravi. Dopo aver finito tutta la serie, gli ho scritto in direct su Instagram per dirgli che era bravissimo. Abbiamo iniziato a sentirci, il resto parla da sé”. Insomma la relazione procede a gonfie vele: “È una brava persona, mi fa stare bene. È una relazione matura. Viviamo in due città diverse, io a Milano e lui a Palermo. Com’è una relazione matura? È quando non hai paura di prenderti del tempo per te. È non temere che l’altro ci rimanga male quando gli dici: ‘Oggi non mi va’. Non si mette in discussione un sentimento, significa che voglio amare me stessa, oggi. Per me, adesso, è fondamentale. Ho bisogno di stare bene io per prima”. L'articolo “Dopo aver visto ‘Mare Fuori’, gli ho scritto su Instagram per dirgli che era bravissimo. Abbiamo iniziato a sentirci”: Katia Follesa sul fidanzato Vincenzo Ferrera proviene da Il Fatto Quotidiano. “After seeing ‘Mare Fuori,’ I wrote to him on Instagram to tell him he was brilliant. We started talking.” – Katia Follesa on her boyfriend Vincenzo Ferrera Katia Follesa is engaged with the show “Comedy Match” on Nove and, in the meantime, enjoys the serene moments of her private life with her new boyfriend, colleague actor Vincenzo Ferrera. A new love after the separation from her husband Angelo Pisani, with whom she maintained excellent relations. “Everyone asks us: how do you do? In our case, we were lucky enough to look ahead and try to save what could be saved. Our relationship was special, it went beyond the man-woman relationship,” the actress commented to Il Corriere della Sera. In an interview with F, Follesa talks about her new love, Vincenzo Ferrera: “Cinema is my Achilles heel. I don’t chase it; when I did it, I realized I wasn’t capable. When I see him act, I find him incredible: he interprets with all parts of his body. He has studied a lot, he has worked with great masters.” It all started due to her daughter Agata’s passion for the TV series “Mare Fuori,” where Ferrera plays educator Beppe Romano: “Her father Angelo and I initially didn’t want her to watch it; it was a bit violent. Then we decided to watch it together: one episode with her and then the two of us continued with the others. We were both in agreement that Vincenzo was one of the best actors. After finishing the entire series, I wrote to him directly on Instagram to tell him he was brilliant. We started talking, the rest speaks for itself.” Basically, the relationship is going smoothly: “He’s a good person, he makes me feel good. It’s a mature relationship. We live in two different cities, I in Milan and he in Palermo. What is a mature relationship? It’s when you don’t fear taking time for yourself. It’s not fearing that the other person will be upset when you say, ‘Today I don’t feel like it.’ A feeling isn’t questioned, which means he wants to love himself, today. For me, now, it’s fundamental. I need to be okay first.” The article “After seeing ‘Mare Fuori,’ I wrote to him on Instagram to tell him he was brilliant. We started talking”: Katia Follesa on her boyfriend Vincenzo Ferrera comes from Il Fatto Quotidiano. #MareFuori #Instagram #KatiaFollesa #VincenzoFerrera #ComedyMatch #AngeloPisani #IlCorrieredellaSera #Agata #Ferrera #BeppeRomano #Angelo #Vincenzo #Milan #Palermo #first #IlFattoQuotidiano https://www.ilfattoquotidiano.it/2026/05/07/dopo-aver-visto-mare-fuori-gli-ho-scritto-su-instagram-per-dirgli-che-era-bravissimo-abbiamo-iniziato-a-sentirci-katia-follesa-sul-fidanzato-vincenzo-ferrera/8378080/

@tobias_heisig@mastodon.social @kuketzblog@social.tchncs.de Klar, die potentielle Anzahl an Kunden ist auf X und Facebook deutlich höher. Aber was nützt es mir, wenn ich an diese Nutzer nicht herankomme? Meine Facebook-Seite hatte es in einem Zeitraum von 2 Jahren nie geschafft, auch nur über 100 Followers zu kommen - obwohl ich dreimal am Tag Beiträge geteilt hatte. Hier auf #Mastodon hingegen habe ich schon über 4000 Followers - Tendenz steigend. #Facebook, #X, #Instagram, #TikTok etc. verleiten mit den Sehnsüchten nach dem "viralen Post", der einen schlagartig berühmt macht - aber das ist für mich wie Lottospielen, vor allem, da diese Plattformen bewusst Zufalls-elemente wie aus Glücksspielen in ihren Algorithmen einbauen. Das ist dasselbe Prinzip wie mit extrem spekulativen Investments, wo es in den allermeisten Fällen schief geht, aber die Hoffnung dann doch den seltenen "Gewinner" zu finden der einen schlagartig reich macht hält die Blase am Leben. Aber mit meinem Geschäftsmodell bin ich nicht an einer Blase interessiert, sondern an nachhaltigen, stetigen, organischen Wachstum. Ich will, daß meine Bücher auch noch in zwei Jahrzehnten gelesen und gekauft werden, und dafür ist ein wirklich authentisches Social Media-System wie das #Fediverse eine bessere Grundlage als die Strohfeuer der großen, kommerziellen Plattformen wo man ständig dem Algorithmus hinterherlaufen muss, um nicht vergessen zu werden. Mit anderen Worten, ich sehe mein Geschäftsmodell wie ein Mittelständler, nicht wie ein Tech Startup.
