I felt the same way. She seems well-meaning but any battle against the major tech companies is probably a losing effort.
Off topic, but I feel frustrated by my friends’ and family’s almost complete lack of interest in privacy. Most express a preference for privacy but don’t want to do the work.
- SiempreViernes 4y agoSorry, you yourself have given up the idea on fighting for privacy but still get annoyed that others don't care?
- mark_l_watson 4y agoWhy do you say that I have given up? I use ProtonMail for most of my personal e-mail (I just switched back to using it), I use private browsing tabs most of the time, I often delete all web data and cookies from my browser, etc. I have also read Surveillance Capitalism, and I am almost done with Privacy is Power. EDIT: I reread your comment and mine: sure, elites+tech companies will “win” but that is no reason to not push back.
