With all the people who work at Meta, you mean to say no one -- NO ONE -- in a position of oversight looked at this and said, "Now wait a minute, are we sure this is okay? A good idea? Going to fly with the users?"
Meta is a pre-school populated by lunatic 5-year olds and no adults.
I’m sure people did. But not decision makers. Many are the times I’ve pointed out “that feature is a bad idea” and even had local management agree, but the big dogs want it, and the big dogs get it, and when it blows up we remove it without comment.
Close. People have been complaining (and suing) over the likenesses being used for years, so there’s no chance the thought didn’t come up somewhere along the line.

The left, which includes most of the leadership at all the Big Tech firms, is definitely children but of the evil sort you saw growing up lying and bullying others whenever they could get away with it. (unless ‘you’ (collective readers) were one, in which case obviously ‘you’ got better ‘cause you’re here).
As such they think: yea “important” people like their favorite actors have the absolute right to not have their precious faces used, but the general populace? Sheep. Pawns. They should pay to let us use their bodies as fodder for our AI.
