Oh fuck. I didn't know this was around the same time. I literally tell everyone about how shit FB is and this proves it 1000x.

If you have a daughter or are a daughter, you should hate meta. They're inspiring a generation of self hating women and they have the data to prove it.

Where does it say that in the article ? I wholeheartedly believe """meta"'" would do that, but I didn't see it mentionned here.

Use Bypass Paywalls Clean to get past most news site paywalls.

Personally, I use Firefox and setup a new profile specifically for this extension and use Multi-Account Containers for each news site and uBlock Origin, too.
