Known ethical problems with MT:

  • You can't delete your Threads account without deleting your Instagram account.[1]
  • Meta has said that yes, they will be mining Threads user data as they do everywhere else. (Why wouldn't they?)
  • They seem to be systematically doxxing their users.
  • They seem to be entirely tolerant of intolerance:
    • Threads apparently considers it okay to call LGBTQ+ people "groomers".
    • Anti-LGBTQ+ accounts which Threads is allowing include:
      • "Libs of TikTok", a group which promotes right-wing views by straw-manning the center-left
      • "Gays Against Groomers" [1]
      • PragerU (Dennis Prager; see RationalWiki)
  • There are apparently issues with accessibility, and deep-seated denial of those issues.[2]
    • Apparently there is no way to add descriptions to images. (There are presumably other issues; this is just the one I currently know about.)
  • They have actively helped law enforcement to go after people legally seeking abortions by traveling to other states. [2]

Observers [3] have also spotted Gary Vaynerchuk (GaryVee), noted grifter, talking directly with Zuckerberg; There's more information about him here:
