    I'm finally ready to take the Fediverse seriously. Years of tech overreach and enshittification have worn me out.

    The final straw came when Meta decided I should pay over $50 a month just to share a few links to my own podcast. That includes a blue check that means nothing anymore (thanks, X). They already sell ads and our data. Now they want my money too.

    Bear with me while I adjust. If I pull out old habits, please don't yell at me.

      "On Tuesday, Brazilian Supreme Court Justice Flávio Dino ordered the Federal Police to investigate suspected foreign financing of Flávio Bolsonaro’s presidential campaign. The investigation will also need to determine whether any connection exists between political support for the senator and foreign interests in Brazil’s rare earth and strategic mineral resources.

      The investigation’s main focus is on dealings involving Rockbridge Network, a U.S. organization founded with the involvement of Vice President J.D. Vance, along with Brazilian businessmen Tallis Gomes and Pedro Sang. The Federal Police must determine whether these dealings involved money, services or other economic benefits intended to help Bolsonaro’s campaign.

      One of the most significant parts of the ruling is the suspicion that efforts to finance political activity may be tied to foreign economic interests in Brazilian mineral resources."

                                                                                      Meta does harmful things, apologizes, pays a pittance, and still comes out ahead financially.

                                                                                      Zuckerberg sold out his users data to Cambridge Analytica, and influenced the US election. Then he appeared before Congress like a contrite little schoolboy - "Oops! I didn't mean to accidentally cut multibillion dollar deals and sell out Facebook users. Honest mistake. I promise not to do it again ( unless the price is right! )"
                                                                                      Because of the math, he still came out ahead.

                                                                                      I left Meta's platforms a long time ago.

                                                                                      People who are not savvy, are locked into the Facebook walled garden, because of the Network Effect. ( "I can't leave Facebook. All my friends are on Facebook!" )

                                                                                      Having liberated ourselves, it is our duty to liberate others, who are still trapped, to give them their right to privacy.

                                                                                      1) Place ads on Facebook, explaining the benefits of the
                                                                                      ( Fediverse.info/ )

                                                                                      1.1) Freedom from Meta's censorship and algorithms.

                                                                                      1.2) A community owned, open social media platform.

                                                                                      1.3) Based on Free Software, auditable by all.

                                                                                      2) When a user clicks, guide them through exporting their data from Facebook, and deleting their Facebook account.

                                                                                      3) Give them an optional questionnaire, asking about their interests, and match them with the right instance.

                                                                                      4) If they skip the optional questionnaire, pick a semi random Mastodon instance for them.

                                                                                      5) Give them an option to enter into a Facebook migration registry.

                                                                                      6) Help them set up a Mastodon account and import their data.

                                                                                      7) If they opted into the migrant registry, reconnect them with their former Facebook connections, who also joined the registry. Like a reunion in Heaven with your loved ones. ☺️

                                                                                      3. It's a week's worth of work for an experienced programmer. So the requirements break down as:

                                                                                      3.1 A programmer's pay for 1 week ( or volunteer hackers ).

                                                                                      3.3 managed web hosting costs for 1 year.

                                                                                      3.4 customer support hotline number.

                                                                                      A lot of these costs can probably be covered by existing Free Software projects, which may offer free hosting. We might find enough Fediverse volunteers to operate the hotlines.

                                                                                      Technical Details:
                                                                                      ===============

                                                                                      2) The website guides them on how to get FB to release their data to them.

                                                                                      3) The user jumps through the FB hoops, and downloads an archive of their FB data. This might take a day or two.

                                                                                      4) The website ( FB2Fedi.org ) guides them through setting up a Fediverse account.

                                                                                      5) The website optionally helps them upload their contacts file to the registry hosted by the site ( infosec details to be hashed out ).

                                                                                      6) The website helps them upload their posts and photos etc to their Fediverse account. This might require some parsing scripts, for ETL ( Extract, Transform & Load ).

                                                                                      7) The user's data pretty much stays in their control. Their social network is mostly the data a user entrusts the migration registry with.
                                                                                      Using some cryptography primitives, it might be possible to limit this exposure, and mitigate the risk.

                                                                                        A Free Software project might be able to provide the compute resources to host the site.

                                                                                        As for the culture shock of transitioning from FB ( where an evil billionaires algorithm holds your hand, and censors...ahem...curates your feed ) I am not too worried. People will adapt, to yet another new thing.

                                                                                        Maybe we should start new users with a relatively private Fediverse setting, so that only their network can reply to their posts. Rawdogging voices from the whole Internet, without a billionaire's insular algorithm, can be a bit harsh.

On Wednesday, U.N. special rapporteurs criticized the American company and called on the platform not to interfere in Brazil’s democratic process.

                                                                                              In their statement, the U.N. rapporteurs asked Meta to assess whether its moderation, recommendation and artificial intelligence systems had disproportionately restricted one side of Brazil’s election debate.

                                                                                              They also asked the company to provide adequate explanations and remedies, apply its rules consistently and without discrimination, maintain transparent dialogue with civil society, and ensure complaints can be addressed throughout the election period."

But until recently, most automatic speech recognition (ASR) services with high-quality transcription only worked for a small number of them. Meta’s groundbreaking Omnilingual ASR is a major step in creating a universal transcription service. Using a suite of open-source models, it offers speech recognition for 1,600 languages, including 500 that can’t currently be transcribed by other AIs. Paired with Meta's new Omnilingual Machine Translation system, those transcripts can then be translated across more than 1,600 languages, too. “We’re very passionate about making sure technology supports as many languages as possible,” says Jean Maillard, a lead researcher on the project. Already, Nigerian health practitioners are using Omnilingual ASR to improve patient care in community clinics."
