Or Instagram, Facebook, reddit.... Lemmy. I guess Lemmy isn't a company so we have that going but if it's not your own instance you are technically doing work for someone else.
At least Lemmy data is public for anyone to read. I don't care that much if random groups are sucking up all this data for themselves - it's worth it in my opinion because it means good actors can use it for good too. If it were all going to one company, I would be less happy about the fact that they could just black hole it all for nobody's benefit but their own.
