I am not OP.
But an example that I once used to explain to my wife why I don't trust TikTok and whatnot:
Some time ago (I obviously won't say when) we interacted with a person, that had a bounty on his head, setup by Boko Haram, and people DID tried to kill him before. What if for example we had filmed him and that information leaked or got intercepted?
Me, and my wife, have no enemies, done nothing illegal, and so on, nothing to hide personally, but about other people we interact with? What if some day a friend on internet, maybe a gaming buddy, tells me a important secret out of the blue because he needs urgent help, and that secret gets intercepted?
- AnthonyMouse 6y agoI want to make a similar point. Suppose you will forevermore remain a boring person who never has anything to hide. So you knowingly use spyware, because you're an open book. That enables common software to be spyware. If people are willing to use it knowing full well what it is, it continues to exist and be popular. Then people who do need privacy for legitimate reasons don't realize that, or don't have any good alternatives because the better options are niche and make them stick out like a sore thumb. And then dissidents get killed. Don't get dissidents killed. Just Say No to The Cloud.
