Threads “Mark Zuckerberg’s Twitter” One can have “Threads” only if he has an Instagram account and deleting “Threads” means deleting an Instagram account too; Meta
Response received to threads is unbelievable, 10 million user signups in just seven hours, and a day before publishing this article these numbers claimed to be 70 million. But the weird thing is you have to be an Instagram user to sign up for Threads, if you do not have an Instagram account then you have to get one first, to enter the new Threads platform.
And if you have to delete your Thread account then you have to delete the linked Instagram account as well. A max sigh of relief is, that you can deactivate the Threads profile, but the profile cannot be deleted if you do not delete your Instagram account. Basically Meta claims; that the Threads profile is part of an Instagram account, so they both are concomitant with each other.
Threads blasted on social platforms as a potential rival to Elon’s Twitter, and the warming response of users shows that they like waiting for Twitter’s competitor for years.
Mark Zuckerberg in one of his Threads posts explained his point of view for his new app, “I think there should be a public conversations app with 1 billion+ people on it. Twitter has had the opportunity to do this but hasn’t nailed it. Hopefully we will.”
Login: Threads; and feel the world.
Twitter changed their official logo from the iconic blue bird to ‘X’ and the change is already in practice and live on the web. As Elon Musk tweeted;
Last Sunday, Twitter officially changed its account name from @Twitter to @X and app logo. Musk also puts the new Twitter logo as his profile picture. In a reply to Sawyer Merritt tweet, what are tweets called now? Musk replied;
Management of Twitter not only wants to change its name and logo but much more. As company’s CEO Linda Yaccarino tweeted;
In July 2023, Meta released Threads, a text-based social networking app. However, this app is not yet launched in Europe. This is primarily due to regulatory ambiguity and worries over data protection.
European Union proposed a new law called the Digital Markets Act (DMA), which is expected to get into effect in 2024. This law is to regulate large online platforms to create a fair and competitive digital market. The DMA confined the major tech companies to use data gathered from a different provider to target customers for one of their services. By this compulsion, the key function of Meta, the ability to link Threads accounts to Instagram accounts, may become challenging.
Furthermore, the DMA mandates large digital businesses to acquire user consent before collecting and utilizing certain types of data. This might make it more challenging for Meta to obtain the user location and contact data that it needs to power Threads. Regulations in Europe empower users to control their personal information while making it harder for businesses to gather and use data without their consent.
Meta already has data privacy problems like the data breach scandal with Cambridge Analytica, which costs them $725m (£600m) to settle. Regulators in Europe are now wary of the corporation and its methods for collecting data as a result. Because of this, Meta might wait to introduce Threads in Europe until it is certain that it can abide by the local data privacy rules.
