I have not found any news article on this on a whim. Because my friends and family, I need to use Facebook Messenger, and Messenger Lite was a OK client - lightweight, no unnecessary features, etc., compared to the regular Messenger app.

Now I’m a little torn, having a Meta app on my phone is already bad, but having to downgrade to the bloated Messenger app? Not sure I will make a change. What are your thoughts?

What? Nowhere does that say their apps are spying on you when you aren’t using them, this screen just says they have a cross app profile on you. You’ve clearly misinterpreted what this screen means, but “just keep sitting there and saying nuh uh”.

but don’t try to persuade other more privacy savvy individuals otherwise.

I’m a Data Engineer, in tech, focused on privacy. Lol
