And water is wet.
Meta has never and will never comply with GDPR in any capacity and the Irish DPO will be more than happy to dish out more fines if stuff like this comes to light.
This is just proverbial middle finger from Elon to the PayPal shareholders because he couldn't get his way, now he is in a position where he can do this and no shareholder can criticise him for doing so.
The brand 'X' doesn't have any meaning behind it. 'M' maybe so but that would be a stretch.

Smash it. It's the only way to 'fix' it.
They are awesome. Having a collection of 100 of those little bars, was awesome.

It is necessary... for Meta.
Their business depends on the data that is harvested from it's users.
The fact that they can't launch in EU because of how much data they are hoovering up, is a tell tale sign as to how the business is operating.
I remember whenever DPC fined Meta the first couple of times around for the WhatsApp stuff, they threatened to leave the EU if they couldn't get what they wanted (Harvest user data). Meta honestly thinks that they are above GDPR and Data Protection Acts. But they are not. And the fines that the DPC has imposed should show that.
It would be better for everyone if they left the EU.

Query about the syncing of subscribers numbers between instances.
This may have been answered before, but I cannot find a definitive answer to this.
This doesn't necessarily apply to Kbin/Lemmy as I have seen this before with Mastodon and never thought to ask
The number of people that are following https://kbin.social/m/fediverse is not the same as if it were viewed from Lemmy.world.
On Kbin, it's showing 8836 subscribers, but on Lemmy.world, it's merely 485 subscribers.
I understand that it is showing 485 lemmy.world-specific subscribers are subscribed, but my question is:
Why can't the numbers of subscribers be close to or not be the same as the actual number in other instances?
For this particular example, is it a Kbin/Lemmy thing? Is it an ActivityPub thing? Or is it a side-effect of how the Fediverse works?
My thinking was that the synchronising of numbers between instances may be either broken/disabled due to the server load or the feature on the software side of things has not been implemented.
