The thing is in the early days you had some control. Now you don’t.
But by the settings have been removed and our personal content has been squirrelled off to be regurgitated for tech bots narrative. Anything someone might see now It’s not the real shared me. It’s a Frankenstein’s monster virtual version of me where only my ability to sell something or convey the current message gets through to others.
