> In Germany it has been illegal for years to embed anything from social media. "Share on..." buttons like tweets or pics. Not because of licensing, but because it will lead to the social media platform tracking the user without consent. Even users that have no account on that social media and never given consent to anything.
Oh now that makes total sense _actually_. 🤣 I'll calm down now 😉

This! ☝️ 💯 Making it illegal to embed posts is like making it illegal to link to sites ro embed the content (_with permission of course_) of another author, or making it illegal to reference or quote someone else (_again with their permission usually, but quoting is considered "fair use" AFAIK_).
