Hi All
It appears most of us have short term memories, in 2018, the FBI seized Cambridge Analytics servers, where the majority of the data being collected was sourced from Facebook. It was an enormous psychological means of analysing and influencing the way that people think and how they vote apart from making lots of money. Since Meta launched Threats 30 million people signed up due to the fact they were already Instagram users, so they were automatically given accounts on Threads. So I pose the question, is Threads safer, better than Facebook?
Think about it, 30 million peoples thoughts and associated lives are now exposed and potentially analysed, which is a great source of data for analysis purposes. Now apply it to Generative AI models, and the result will be...
The following article suggests this is not the case, so does your organisation have a policy on the use of Instagram and Threads within your organisations?
Why are people so gullible to think Threads would be safer than using Twitter?

Will we see another similar case to Cambridge Analytica occurring or is actually occurring in front of our eyes? Or in fact is being developed without people realising it is happening already?
