Is there actual proof that they are doing this. Theres not much to go on in the tweet.
- tantalor 3mo agoBesides the proof in the screenshot? What more do you want? Do you think this user is faking it?
- quadrature 3mo agoYes people frequently fake screenshots on social media. I'd want either a screenshot from a credible person, reporting from a journalist, trusted blogger, company statement etc.

- tantalor 3mo agoI'm not a journalist, but I don't think a reporter would go much further than "one user said...". There is no need for fact checking an individual source, other than to verify the reporting is accurately representing what they said.
- quadrature 3mo agoA credible journalist would not entertain writing a story based on a screenshot some random user posts on social media.
- dabinat 3mo agoWell the company statement is that they say they can do this in their terms of service. It seems very plausible that Meta is doing what their TOS says they’re allowed to do.
- ryan42 3mo agoyes, it happened to me recently. The photo wasn't mine, but showed a profile photo of one of my facebook friends, and it had the glasses and said "On my way!"
- edoceo 3mo agoAnd they have a history of doing this. And their privacy/ToS allows it.
