"Full of shit" means "not telling the truth", a hypocrite, e.g. one that suffers from double standards. You can tell a lot by my reply, but not that. And I understand the author's frustration, because I've been there. We tend to live in filter bubbles, believing the stories of those around us, acquaintances that we picked according to our own ideals. Step outside that bubble and you'll notice people don't freaking care about most of your ideals. And I wouldn't say they are full of shit. If anything, it means that we aren't realistic, a problem of expectations management and a recipe for depression. Hence my comment — i.e. I'm one of those that won't quit Facebook due to outrage over the story of Cambridge Analytica, because I don't think that makes any difference. I'm also among those that have been happy with the introduction of GDPR, because companies are unreliable and have built business models that depend on the ignorance of Internet users. I also work in the online ads industry, while being anti-tracking, so compared to a lot of people in this community, I'm not guilty of double standards, at least in regards to tech.
