Six years ago I interviewed at a company that was working on this technology. My background was in image processing and segmentation. I knew someone else would work on it if I didn’t but I still couldn’t sleep with myself at night working for a company whose monetization depends on data mining people. It deeply saddens me that even this shopping mall where I’m currently posting from, tracked customers secretly and got busted with a bit of luck. Eventually they will win. :(

Surely these scummy companies must be in the same state? I know that security through obfuscation is not a valid method for storing bitcoin keys. But privacy via idiocy is more common than not (exceptions do apply: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/History_of_the_Jews_in_the_Netherlands#The_Holocaust https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/History_of_the_Jews_in_the_Net...)
