Off the cuff here, being seen as weird is a social construct. Making personal desicions with confidence inspires confidence in others. If “friends” see your actions as weird and you’ve made your decisions with thought and deliberation then you are faced with the question, are these people really your friends? In the case of privacy we share a situation where society is being normalized to make decisions that is not in the best interest of individuals writ large but instead favors the bottom line and profits of a few corporations that could not care less if we live or die. Actions being seen as fraudulent is just an enforcement mechanism to protect these motives. Opinions are changed one individual at a time, but as opinions change so to does society. As someone who is deeply appalled by the current state of affairs, I encourage anyone who feels the same to stay strong. These corporate culprits of societal rot are just one mass migration away from folding. It’s happened before and it will happen again. We on hacker news are the ones leading the charge.
