    I “lost” my old FB account because they demanded my ID to verify my legal name, near 11 years ago. I fucking refuse, and will always refuse.

    Fuck Zucc.

      What do you use instead for online social groups? Do you ever hit a group or business that’s only on Meta apps, whether fakebook or whatsapp?

      I got flagged on Facebook for using an obviously fake name. So I changed to a more plausible sounding name and it worked. I had prepared a doctored passport scan but it wasn’t necessary.

      For another FB account they wanted me to get at least two user friends to verify they know me or some bs like that. I didn’t bother. Years later I was able to log into that one anyhow.

      They know that they can’t push too hard.

        mine is still blocked ;_; not that it is an issue anymore. I did create a second account for a bit but now am basically completely disconnected from their… “service”… of my own volition.
