If applications and datasets are fragmented, then that's going to be a nightmare for all stakeholders, including:

* researchers, because they will have to write data access applications, including a sufficient description of planned safeguards, detailed enough to the point that their university is ready to take a legal liability (and you can imagine how easy this will be), and

* digital service coordinators, because it will take ages for them to process applications from thousands of researchers each requesting a slightly different dataset.

In the end, we need to develop standardized datasets across platforms and to streamline data access processes so that they're safe and efficient.

Who is this better for? Not me, the user, that's for damn sure. So instead of just sharing my data with Meta, now I have to share it with Meta and everybody in the damn world?

To be fair, by using Meta products, you already allow sharing with "the rest of the world" https://medium.com/@jeanhdmello/meta-doesnt-sell-your-data-d...
