People suggesting a user-based solution to this problem is like someone suggesting “well, you should just comprehensively read the terms of service and privacy policy for every website and product you use, and if you don’t agree, don’t use the site.” It’s an absurdly naive solution at best, and downright malicious solution at worst. In any case, people who believe this should be in the hands of the user don’t give a shit about the user, either actually or practically.
