That's completely ignoring network effects: I want to delete WhatsApp from my phone. But if I do so, it means I won't be taking part in everyday family life anymore.
- black_bird 7y agoThen you agree with me. Your preference is greater for "being in contact with someone" than your privacy or other factors. Case closed. Or are you saying that someone should force your family members to use another product that suits your personal preferences?
- majewsky 7y agoI'm saying that, as a society, we should not allow products that don't respect people's fundamental freedoms. The disagreement between us is whether privacy should be considered a constitution-level fundamental freedom. In fact, in my country (Germany), the Supreme Court has ruled that it is.
