Or, maybe all these “lazy normies” are just busy with things like friends, family, work and their community...so they don’t really care if X company is able to do better ad targeting.
But sure, you guys have fun living under your rock and being super educated on the nuances of mobile ad targeting technology. The rest of us idiots will waste our time doing intellectually lazy things like spending time with our kids and living in the real world.
- SCHiM 5y agoNot to be too offensive, but it _is_ lazy no? This stuff is important! I feel like it's (and has been for a while) going wrong. I know user education it mostly a pipe dream. But it's all I can think of. The iPhone is probably relatively free compared to the streamlined hassle-free applications and devices of the future. And all the while polarization in all our societies grows, until my government too has no option but to lock it down and forge social cohesion through state-sponsored psy-ops and information-ops. We'll be well on our way to a 1984 dystopia then. --- And please, it's not like there's not time for a normal life. See my comment about my family member below. Maybe if tech people would just refuse to fix the internet, more people would understand how it works.
