You are using a social network on some random dude's server.

[–] jxrdsn@infosec.pub 42 points 1 year ago

That is very true, but I have a little more trust in this random dude’s server where he gets access to what? He sees my IP address? Than a corp that collects an unnecessary amount of user info for the sole purpose of keeping you locked into their apps with little disregard for health. While also pimping your info out to any persons with $2 to their name.

Any random person is at least a hundred times more ethical than mark Zuckerberg.

You overestimate the ethics of random human beings.

Atleast zuck is beholden to pretend to be ethical.

Yeah I wouldn't take on hosting a public instance, especially in EU, as it comes with all sorts of legal shite
