this entire complaint centers on the over-paternalistic notion that it is the service operators responsibility, rather than the users, to solve these problems, and that this is the desired state of affairs.
1) ... on the users that have chosen to enable this
2) ... for the users that use other peoples servers or servers from disreputable people, or share to those who do the same.
3) ... and? this presumes GDPR is a good thing
4) ... it's impossible to view a list of viewed messages, perform bulk operations, flag, sort, group etc. facebook to the same level that can be done in other 'archaic' technologies such as email. presuming commercial ui's are designed for user friendlyness rather than increasing user engagement, etc. is a red herring. also, strawman.
5) much like HTML, TCP/IP, SMTP, HTTP and everything else the internet runs on?
6) which is why spam filters don't work? and users don't have brains to do this themselves?
