I only use it for marketplace too with a fake name and only access it on a computer that I don’t care about much. Fuck Facebook for taking my precious Craigslist away from me.
They have long been banning people for that, I think 15 years have said people have to use their real names, and have froze peoples' accounts (not letting them delete them until unfroze,) and demanded ID and video of themselves moving this way and that and doing such and such. Even then they've denied legitimate users I've heard so it's odd.
But they do target people for using fake names, and it's getting enshrined into law in a lot of places if we don't stop them. Lawmakers really want to be able to crush any dissent, whether it's on their foreign policy, climate change, environmental protests, or soon protests about them, and economic situations. They want age checks identifying every account and ip and palantir type organizations giving social scores and distributing threat assessments to business and government to be used against you secretly in a way you cannot know about or challenge.
Being rolled out worldwide at the same time, surrendering us to tech.
My account is ancient so good luck I guess
I don't care if mine gets proscribed, I will quit using it before I verify my identity, even if I could trust them not to let others have my identity. I am currently removing all internet companies that forced me to use my phone to verify my account despite me not wanting that ever.
Except for like my bank, but even then, I want email to work, I don't want to be locked out of everything if I lose my phone, it's charge, or it's service. And it's not like it's secure either.
I will switch to the fediverse and wait for people to come to us before I hand them my personal information they use for commercial purposes and give to the government and business interests without my say so.
