That was escalated quickly. :O
Any ideas how we, the users of the internet, should act to prevent those steps? or building a much better connected and not controlled by mega-corporates INTERNET social platform?

There's plenty of places where you can pay a nominal free to have your data 100% controlled by you alone. Plus, you can still use X, Insta or whatever to drive traffic to your site. Its not that hard folks!
Do you happen to have a list handy? If I had to do this today the only clear way would be a personal cloud setup.
Don't use services with ToS you don't agree with.
Understand that nothing is more sacred than the Holy Dollar to an entity whose only purpose is to extract money from its customers.
Always assume you'll be betrayed by corporations and store your possessions (data in this case) accordingly.
Diversify your interests and hobbies such that a betrayal by a corporation doesn't significantly impact your life.
At this point, trusting corporations without putting any mitigations in place seems like begging desperately for trouble.
These things need to be shorter and written at a 8th grade writing level, and I don’t mean that in any pejorative way. It needs to be clear to the average person (and I’m not even sure if I’m being generous there by suggesting 8th grade writing/reading level).
The prompt should read “So, you cool with that brah?”, and the word “Accept” needs to be replaced with “Yeah sure why not”, and “No” with “Nah, no thank you”.
Current TOS’s don’t provide enough clarity.
That way any semantic issues down the line can be boiled down to “brah, users said they were cool with it” (to the judge).
This is like Cold-war between companies, that we as users are the cannon fodder...
What I want to know is, what's the endgame? We've proven that AI learning eventually plateaus, so you keep feeding it data and...? Seems like an underpants gnome problem or companies trying to find another stock bump for all of this data lying around (that should be considered toxic instead)
