I am curious (genuinely -- no snark) if your concern is mostly a theoretical/political one or if it's more personal? Are you worried that you might somehow be compromised because of lax privacy? If so, how? Or is it that you don't agree with the idea of your data being in the hands of Google and/or sold to others?
- DavideNL 11y agoI rather pay for services with money instead of privacy, unless i know my data is being used for a good cause. For example i don't mind sharing my data in a hospital with a university for educational purposes. However, for example, I don't like sharing my data with LinkedIn, who then sells it, makes a huge profit, and even tries to sell the gathered data back to the users themselves in order to get full access to search results. Also this is a good example which explains how people don't seem to value digital privacy equal to "real life privacy" (probably because they don't fully understand?) : https://ar.al/notes/schnail-mail-free-real-mail-for-life/ https://ar.al/notes/schnail-mail-free-real-mail-for-life/ PS. to all the people downvoting, it's rather childish to downvote, without replying/communicating at all, just because you don't agree with my opinion. If you think facts are wrong then reply something constructive.
