I have a very old Facebook account i haven’t touched for no less than 10+ years. I had decided to just let it decay under the reasoning that old data is worse than useless to them, but now in light of Facebook announcing they’ll take it all to train for LLMs if you don’t opt out, i am unsure if to continue leaving that account to rot, or if to recover it, opt out, then doing the delete procedure. What would you say is the best choice?
Hmmm.
How about deleting old content and then filling the timeline with AI gibberish?
I don’t have an account, and I’m not willing to create one just to do this, but it’s a golden situation: use an account you’re going to delete anyway to poison the well.
Nice idea, but it’ll get flagged if you do too much going back in time.
And? Are they going to take away my birthday? OP is already consisting just purging everything; it’s not like they have much they can do but lock him out. And if all he leaves being is AI garbage, I don’t see the downside.
