Agreed, although it will be an uphill battle. We are rapidly outsourcing governance to data brokers who will vigorously defend their core business model. Boycotts are likely a good place to start, at least until public institutions can be reclaimed, if they can be.
- offtop5 6y agoI saw an article here where a dating app was actually selling it's data to a broker , and then that data was being resold to the US military. Even more alarming , this appeared to target a specific demographic. I dislike online dating for an array of reasons, not being able to control my personal data is the top one. The only thing you can do is be mindful of how much data you give out.
