Does it feel like your X account belongs to you and you can do whatever you want with it? That’s not true, according to a new court filing from the social media company formerly known as Twitter. It’s an argument that X is making in order to throw a wrench in The Onion’s recent purchase of InfoWars, the conspiracy theory media company run by Alex Jones. And it’s a great reminder that you don’t actually own what you think you own in the digital age.
You think it’s really deleted in the back end? Adorable
…I don’t care.
I left Facebook but I left my account a husk. If the last thing they ever know is that I went to Krispy Kreme and got a pumpkin spice donut in 2017, then that’s cool with me.
I kept it because occasionally a dude needs a $50 TV and it’s the best place to find a used one.
"After eating the donut, the trail goes cold, Mr. Zuckerberg. We just don’t know!*

It’s cute that you think I even have it installed.
Facebook tracks you even if you don’t have an account.
It’s cute that you think no one else has done these things unless you specifically told them about it.
Looks like pretty basic and easy shit to avoid. I can’t speak for the advertisement part. I don’t see ads.
You missed the point, congrats.
No, I don’t. But that’s another data point for them to see people leaving their service.
