Screenshot from a Wired article (2017) that states: "But earlier this month, The Australian uncovered something that felt like a breach of the social contract: a leaked confidential document prepared by Facebook that revealed the company had offered advertisers the opportunity to target 6.4 million younger users, some only 14 years old, during moments of psychological vulnerability, such as when they felt "worthless," "insecure," "stressed," "defeated," "anxious," and like a "failure."

Oof. That's a poor assumption.
I don't want to see Twitter in my feed because I don't want to (even incidentally) support Twitter's UNETHICAL owner.
Same for Zuck.I left FB long ago because of his UNETHICAL behavior.
Aside from Zuck's willingness to enable genocide--cuz' profit, he tried to sell depressed kids' info to advertisers--cuz' profit. Kids. FFS.

I whole a lot of people care more about the ethics than the "interoperability."
