Reminder! Download your data and delete your account, not just the app. It’s not as easy as the cover suggests, of course!

And after switching to iOS if necessary, download a device-level tracker blocker VPN like jumbo or disconnect.me torqued to the strictest settings to kill your shadow profile across all your apps and devices. It’s a lot of work to really delete Facebook from your life.
Residents of locales that grant #datarights to access your data under legal protections such as EU member states under #GDPR or other nations and US states such as California and Virginia granting their residents data rights in the wake of Cambridge Analytica, exercise ur rights!
Without legal pressure from #datarights exercisers who complain to the appropriate regulators when data downloads are not sufficiently adequate, we aren’t going to move the needle on algorithmic justice, let alone Mark Zuckerberg’s imperial power.
It’s not just about picking the best set of tech reform bills in Congress competing for our attention. It’s also about how people would then exercise any new #datarights in real life to develop a muscularity because, otherwise our data is abused, at scale, by default, to the max.
