This is not tech specific, this is the world we live in. It is built on ignorance.
- It is the steak I ate at dinner.
- It is the AC I turned up in summer.
- It is the car I drive etc.
- not_kurt_godel 4y agoSociety does indeed effectively force us to participate in a number of immoral systems and choices but the ones you listed are not equivalent to voluntarily choosing a job whose fundamental basis is deceiving people into violating their privacy for your personal gain.
- starwind 4y agoAgreed, there's greater sins and lesser sins and it's insane to think otherwise.
- kevinh 4y agoSome would disagree that opting into eating meat—supporting an industry that kills billions of animals each year—is better than any violation of privacy. As I'm sure you're aware, the majority of the population doesn't bat an eye at that. I don't think it's at all surprising that enough people wouldn't be bothered by some non-lethal deception for monetary gain.
