Of course we know they were monetizing your info and sharing with gov'ts around the world.

But the part of the story that grabbed me is that "partners" like Netflix could read all content, delete messages from your account, and send messages to other accounts as if they came from you.

I've tried to convince all of my family and friends to get off that platform (and plenty more.) I hope DU is much, much cleaner.
