LOL what are they not up to?

To put it very succinctly: they want to control you and your very expensive hardware that you buy from them.

You think Google is going out of their way to ensure their devices are made in ethical factories?

Why not both?

I think in reality the Chrome web browser is a huge threat to Internet freedom and should be a top priority.

I hate to say it, but the crackdown worked exactly as intended.

Of course it did. Why wouldn't it? It's not like anyone is thinking "oh my grandson's friend can't use my account for free anymore, I'm going to cancel my subscription now!". All while Netflix is dramatically reducing their server load costs.

Breaking news; several users who were not paying for Netflix are now still not paying for Netflix.

And yet they've never fixed the size, added a number row or a second layer for punctuation...

Because it lacks many of the tools, features, and finish of more popular ones like WhatsApp, Telegram, and even IG.

What data is available is not so important to me as what data could be used against me in a court of law.

Bit of a moot point regardless as there are plenty of private messengers.

I don't know but you can only place calls to other WhatsApp users, to my knowledge

I love SimpleX because you can have multiple users and you can use 1-time invite codes so you don't actually have to give anyone an identifier of any kind if you don't want to.

The EU is supposed to pass some laws to make iMessage accessible from other devices

I was the biggest social media addict

I was, a long time ago. Back when you actually used it to follow your friends and see what they were up to. Meta fixed that right up for me when they enshittified it with rampant ads, "Reels" and "suggestions", not to mention cloning literally every other social media feature, to the point that I can't even find my actual friends anymore.
