WhatsApp and the domestication of users
(seirdy.one)
A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.
Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

I can't speak for the author, but I have some feelings about the matter. Baking a proprietary service into an open source browser, and of course requiring accounts. Then the FF accounts merging with the Pocket accounts. I really wasn't pleased.
Wait, do you mean that your ff account share data with pocket, whether you ever signed into it or not?
Oh I have no idea about that, but isn't it the same account now? Because I remember receiving emails about accounts being merged. I don't use Pocket or FF anymore so I am probably out of the loop.
