The article paints a pretty bleak picture, but it's even worse when we consider that even the author has bought in to privacy destroying narratives and technologies. I mean, the guy just posted an article on privacy inequality on a site that requires a third party login to discuss said article??? Don't even get me started on his belief that Elon Musk and companies like Tesla will be bulwarks against privacy inequality??? Keep in mind, this is a guy who, at least, knows that privacy inequality exists. And even he is given to almost naturally accepting narratives and technologies that are a direct threat to equality in this regard. So if even guys like the author are able to be seamlessly integrated into the future system of asymmetric privacy we're creating, then there really isn't much hope for most of the world's population who are liable to be a good deal less thoughtful. All that said, HN User slfnflctd is correct, privacy inequality is bad, but there are much worse causes of suffering for humanity. Slavery does spring immediately to mind. Rape, Genocides. Etc. Privacy inequality might help to enable some of those things, but those things certainly exist with no help from privacy inequality at all.
