Just deleted my Instagram Account for good. I have no need for any Meta App on my Phone or any other Stasi like Institution

Someone feel free to refresh me but I think it’s Samsung in the US you can only disable Facebook not delete it and it still calls home even if disabled. Probably other manufacturers as well. If you roll with android over apple 100% get a pixel. Yes fuck Google as well but they don’t have any 3rd party shit collecting your data unless you install it.

I have a Galaxy S10(unbranded). I could just uninstall all the Apps. And if I come around to do it, I will add all Meta IP’s to my PiHole block list.

Edit:I double checked. Instagram and WhatsApp are un-installed, Facebook is just deactivated. :(
