Retired software / eCommerce engineer, tired of seeing too many people/companies whose judgement is so poor that they still use Meta, Inc products in 2026.
While the recently released Social Reckoning movie could have been better, it is still the most important movie of the decade and everyone needs to see it. Even better, checkout what the REAL @jeffhorwitz.bsky.social has to say about the movie and tell everyone to stop using Meta products!

Another great victory for common sense, but until 2.5 billion idiots wake up and stop sending their valuable data to the wealthiest of the wealthy with everything they click on, they've got no one to blame but themselves for who ends up in the oval office.

Yay! Meta Bankruptcy Approaching 👍
The bigger they are, the harder they fall 😆

Although it is pretty unfortunate how few people realize that the 1.4T in damages to children is barely a sliver of Meta's actual overall damage (e.g. the Myanmar Genocide).

Today is for the men and women who left home in service to our country and never made it back.
Remember them today.
Spend time with family. Fly the flag. Remember the freedoms and ordinary moments we enjoy came at great cost.
God bless their sacrifice, and God bless America.

I should clarify that there were two separate findings of liability involving 37,500 violations. So that's ~$375 million in a state that contains 0.62% of the US population.
