I posted this on my #Mastodon feed a short while ago

Just sent an email to the local BBC offices*, asking why they are still using X and Facebook etc. for social media.

*if I get a reply I know it will be corporate!

#BBC #SocialMedia #X #Twitter #Facebook #Instagram #WhatsApp #Threads #WhyAreYouStillUsing

I also sent a slightly altered email to both the local council and the county council

This is a copy of the email


Hi,
In light of the recent outbursts by the owner of X, twitter as used to be, asking if the United Kingdom should be liberated, then his rants against Ministers of His Majesty's Government and his use of what is known as the Nazi or Roman salute at Donald Trump's inauguration, should you still be using his 'services' as he becomes more and more blatantly fascist in his views? Similarly, should you still be using Meta groups social media, Facebook, Instagram, WhatsApp and Threads, In light of their owner rolling back rules around hate speech and abuse.

Thank you for reading
Looking forward to you response.
