It is probably way too late for that to make any difference, no?

I wonder if they will ever consider paying the users for the content they provide that constitutes “its” data. 🤔

The users get a service that costs hundreds of millions to maintain for free.
And no one is forcing them to post valuable content without compensation.

Well there’s apparently more than 400 million active users every month, so they could charge users a few cent per month and pay for the infrastructure entirely. But they choose to be massive privacy invading assholes.

If they charged users any amount of money there wouldn’t even be 400000 of them anymore.
