I wonder who runs W and what interests they have. This is the typical right/far-right response when anybody complains or protests about anything, start speculating about someone paying people to... complain?
W Social
As we have communicated. We did the update on Septemebr 17th. Now a question back to you @wdonthavetime.selfhosted.social Who have funded you and what is your connection to other PDS operators? What is your motive to create a site framing public information as a "data-leak" what's your motive?

Ok — I've seen enough. #WSocial is the politics of Elon Musk meets the accountability of Mark Zuckerberg.
I understand perfectly well. My questions concern the people behind the flood of content about W since we launched our beta in June. Who are they? Who funds them? What other financial interests might they have? And why is the site anonymous? Those are reasonable questions about transparency.
Some thoughts on #WSocial, how they have been responding to criticism and why I believe they are showing the limits of free speech absolutism.

Dear friends who don't speak German: Go to YouTube ASAP, turn on subtitles → autogenerated translation and watch this video! TL;DR: #WSocial is posting legal names, nationalities and approx. birthdays of verified users as a public record on the Atmosphere. Confronted, they claim it's "by design" 🤯
Just because I comment, like or share content on W doesn’t mean I endorse a particular political position. I want W to be a place for open, fair and unbiased debate where different perspectives can be heard and challenged. Everyone is welcome on W. We need more dialogue and less polarization.❤️
