Yeah, and some people will decline. I'd rather be harassed than tracked.

- PaulHoule 5y agoDecline might mean you can opt-out and use the service or it might mean access is denied. There are many different legal definitions of "privacy", one of them is "the right to be left alone", from that viewpoint widespread harassment might be worse than accumulating dossiers that are used tactfully. The Soviet Union tried towards the end, but having 50 people assigned to track and harass somebody like Andrei Sakharov is no way to run a civilization, never mind promote full employment. If a society is accumulating dossiers that it can't take real action on that's different from having that system coupled to a harassment machine which is orders of magnitude more expensive than dossier building.

- akvadrako 5y agoIt's illegal to deny access if you refuse the tracking.
- aantix 5y agoI'd rather be tracked than inconvenienced. Go away banners. They are annoying.
