People talk hard about blocking Threads because of the privacy issues and the surveillance capitalism reasons.

but I'm likely blocking them for much more boring reasons... they have hundreds of TBs of storage, unlimited bandwidth and a marketing budget (5 million people signed by in the first few hours).

#Meta has the ability to simple price administrators out of the market using the classic method of just out spending your enemy.

I don't like Meta, and even if I wanted to communicate with #Threads -- I fear I simple won't be able to play the same game as them for very long.

I am seeing numbers around 30 million on BBC news, but without actual verification it is hard to get a true figure.

That is 30 million people happy for META to collect 14 different types of data from them.
