Hint. Choose an angle !=90° when hurling the rocks.

I guess that's right. Although I'm (most likely) not a person of interest for any secret service. But the data could be interesting for marketing and insurance companies.

Thanks.

That is what the article is explaining.

The planned improvements are a good thing. I thought we talked about the status right/ until now.

Also: What does it mean then Meta (the company) isn't eager to collect this data (anymore)? This doesn't fit my world view of this company.

I don't think so. Metadata is unencrypted (i.e. your contacts, who sends messages to whom and how often and when).
Messages itself are encrypted.

Am I wrong?

What is my purpose?

It's easy for Tom to do it. He's an immor(t)al operating thetan or something like that after all.

Sounds like social media for a specialised case. Thanks for your explanation.

Eine Kamera im Hemdknopf des potenziellen Investors nimmt alles auf, schon seit fast drei Stunden.

3 Stunden! Der arme Aktivist.

I never never cared about my own or other people's music listening history. And I never talked to someone who does. So I never needed a word for the thing, I guess.

Ich teile deine Ansicht. Das hat mich geärgert, als ich das gelesen hab.

Für den Fall, dass deine Frage nicht rhetorisch ist: ich glaub ein bisschen Opportunismus - er schreibt was die Leser hören wollen. Und ein bisschen kognitive Dissonanz - Selbsttäuschung, damit der Konflikt der eigenen Ansichten mit der wahrgenommen Realität nicht zu unangehm wird.

Hat jemand weitere Erklärungsansätze?

It really depends on the use case. 😏
