On reddit, it was frowned upon to create a new acc after getting banned - and still it was frequently needed to do so, because of some mod gone wild.

The same jerks who have been mods on reddit are now becoming the mods on lemmy. And they still get unlimited power, and still nobody is reviewing their actions.

Now, please explain: why would anybody share such stories of getting banned?

That’s not the question here.

The 2 problems here are

that F*book scrapes this user’s personal data from other random places (very illegal)

and that they change the FB profile without asking the user specifically (should be illegal, but maybe they find an excuse in their terms & conditions)

Being forced to read generated content?

Nobody deserves that. Not even criminals.

We should write it down into the list of basic human rights: the RIGHT to freely decide if i want to read/hear/view any generated content.

You should be proud of that

Even commercial ‘social’ media need anonymity.
