The only needed response is “no”.

Meta doesn’t own Lemmy. But If Lemmy employed the same tactics, drop them too. The Internet is not just social media.

I watch with VLC on Android which has a built in downloader.

Just delete all Meta stuff. All of it.

It was dial-up. Most computers don’t have phone modems built in anymore, cell phones definitely don’t and it would be so slow as to be virtually useless with modern APIs. Broadband needs a hardware setup which nobody can or will do for free. Sure there’s wifi which some cities offer but those will be restricted and are only “free” as covered by local government taxes or local businesses. The days where the model of free internet access in exchange for selling your data is gone. Clearly to me the poster above is referring to social media selling your privacy which goes back to my point that social media is not the Internet.

That was tried in the early hours 2000s but almost nobody used it.

You’re confusing Internet with services on the Internet. Social media is not the Internet. The Internet exists without Facebook, Xitter and other social media sites.

Reminder that you should choose where to back up to, not Microsoft.

That’s absolutely insane.
