    Doc, your threads link above (“here”) is not friendly to one who has never signed up for any Meta product (facebook, instagram, etc.) First the window is plastered over by a dark overlay which can disappear by clicking outside its border, then we get to see about the first 3 pieces then the window is plastered over again with no recourse for the outsider except to become an insider, so I clicked the browser back button to return to the Doc Searls blog. And I didn’t see anything funny in those first three, but I don’t think I’m a human AI.

      My wife also has no Meta engagements, so: my sympathies. Fortunately, it doesn’t matter. Meta is awful whether one is engaged or not.
