Wow.. so first #Facebook hijacks the common tech language term “Meta”, then they hijack the term “Threads”. What self-absorbed self-entitled holier-than-thou assholes. It causes the sort of confusion trademark law was invented to mitigate.

I will still call Facebook “Facebook”. What are people calling FB’s “Threads™” in order to reject their brand in favor of unambiguous language?
