Attached: 1 image Yeah, that's gonna be a hard pass from me thanks, Rachel. Zero interest in having a conversation with #Meta "off the record" or otherwise. Sharing this purely to be as transparent as possible with our members.

The exchange is about Meta’s upcoming ActivityPub-enabled network Threads. Meta is calling for a meeting, his response is priceless!

    tl;dr: when you tell people what you’d like them to do, it increases the chances of them doing that.

    In my experience when you tell huge corporations what you’d like them to do, it has no bearing on whether or not they will do that.

    Facebook/Meta wouln’t even moderate out incitements to genocide when multiple people asked that of them for years, so it seems naive to assume they care at all about the people in the fediverse.

    They are profit driven with a laser focus, and this is a really obvious attempt at co opting, not collaborating.

      This might cause instances to have a legal obligation not to federate with them, as some countries forbid you from supporting places where hate speech exists.
