  Mass surveillance is ubiquitous. Personal data is a goldmine. Every actor who has the ability to spy on you is doing so and selling your data to corporations and government agencies. Your personal interest in entertainment on Netflix is no different from this. You are being profiled by every online action you take. You are filmed in public and your location is being tracked.

  > Oh no, the government knows which movies and series from a very limited and pre-filtered catalogue i have legally watched. Assuming Netflix has anything to do with mass surveillance seems rather absurd; or maybe I just haven't found the terror training section yet. Your reaction is exactly what they expect it to be, and why ultimately I don't feel bad when these massive leaks and doxxings happen. Its hard to believe anyone to be so bellicose to privacy but I think that's the demographic FAANG wanted and they finally have it in masse. Its hard to explain, but if you could put members of the STASI and the KGB in a room in the 50's and told them so many would not only they'd give up this information for a pittance by US Megacorps but they'd do so willingly under the guise of 'services' they'd probably have a serious discussion and revisit the whole 'Socialist' thing in exchange for this desired end. It's really sad that this isn't even shocking to me anymore but also highlights why we need another Internet entirely.
