>I would also probably buy said malicious actors a beer if I met them, accompanied by a high five.

You would, would you? Thousands of individuals who by and large wanted to try out a competitor to Facebook ended up getting their personal details downloaded and leaked (and we're talking about very sensitive details here), and you're going to buy a beer for the criminals who did this? I assume before you turn them into the authorities for their 10-20 year sentences?

That is a very, very generous take. And if that's all users were doing then their data being breached is regrettable but not world ending.

That's a very, very callous take.

It is an appropriate take. For years Parler was shared person to person as an alternative to Facebook, and even liberals who were upset at Facebook tried it out.
