Does the world need more billionaires? Guess we will soon find out, as they multiplying now, and not even naturally!

"the company admitted it likely won’t be able to keep up with competing models."

"As such, the announcement is a bit of an enigma: if it can’t keep up with the competition, why release it at all? There’s a good change Meta is just trying to get its foot in the door — or a “seat at the big kid’s table,” as Wired put it. The company has struggled to stay relevant in a rapidly changing landscape" "Meta’s preceding Llama open source models largely failed to catch on, with a major controversy last year finding that Meta may have faked benchmark results to make its Llama 4 model seem more capable than it actually was."

It looks like a spyware from companies like Google, Meta and other harmful companies, started demanding more private data (phone, mobile app installation) otherwise they refuse to give you access to the account or even prevent deleting your account.

For example Instagram ends up with message:

You need to sign in on a device you’ve signed in from before and approve this login.

If you don’t have access to an alternative device that you’ve used to log into this account before, it’s not safe for us to let you log in.

When you waste some time finding out how to contact them or delete account ( https://help.instagram.com/370452623149242 ) you can not find any contact.

Is there anyone who knows how to delete the Meta account like Facebook or Instagram without having access to it and without installing their spyware apps to other devices?

I tend not to even use a burner phone in a default state with data disabled and VPN enabled and let the app leak some of the phone data. Having doubts if it would work to allow the access. I suspect not since i never logged the account from the device.

  • One thing may be to forget. To close all the tabs of the Meta service and on the home page of the service, click address bar lock/shield icon and clear site cookies and Shift+F5 to reload with cleared cookies and then warn all friends not to use the company, mentioning more private alternative where they can find you.

SMH @ activists using techno-fascist platforms for communications during an operation subject to state-actor level interference. I thought we recognised and acknowledged this problem 15-20 years ago already.
