  6. It's also worth reflecting on why Facebook pays its employees so highly. There are two principle reasons:

    1. It can. The company is an absolute cash machine.

    2. It has to. For both selling their morality, and mental health due to the stress.

    Which is what cooperating with FB in any way, shape, or form would also entail.

  11. @stux If US and EU antitrust / competitiveness authorities cannot secure compliance from Facebook and Zuckerberg for existing and longstanding orders, what makes you think a rag-tag bunch of Fediverse admins will fare better?

    Facebook are manifestly bad-faith and untrustworthy actors. Preblock, now.

    Facebook is a repeat violator at the FTC. There was a consent decree that goes back close to a decade, which the FTC in 2019 found that they violated. The recent news suggests that they may have also been in violation of this latest consent order. And that is really prompting a step back and a close look at: What does it take to make sure that firms across the board are actually complying with the law? ... I think when you have companies that are repeatedly before a law-enforcement agency, you need to ask serious questions about whether these companies are recidivist and whether they have a challenge in abiding by existing laws.

    At the very least, a precondition for any cooperation would be full compliance with existing antitrust actions, sanctions, consent orders, and the like, for a period at least as long as noncompliance (so, at least ten years in the case of the order found in violation in 2019).

    Edit: s/Swischer/Swisher/. Clarified and corrected out-of-compliance period regarding consent orders.
