Plenty of people find value in things like better ads or more connectivity across sites. Tracking can imrpove some services (I let maps keep my location history) and while I always use adblocks on PC, I admit to have found interesting relevant to me stores on instagram presumably because they keep data about me.
- xwolfi 5y agoThat's interesting ! They exist ! I really nearly fainted when I saw my location history on google and now that I have a firewalled Huawei with Google forbidden on it, I finally feel a bit location-safe :D And it's not that I care that americans know where I am, it's that people can just get my phone/account, people close to me, and track me, eww. I really am impressed you found relevant stuff on instagram, but I found that desiring less things is usually just as rewarding as getting an add for the right flavor of yoghurt.
