Google and Meta are both banned in China because they wouldn't give the party everything it wanted. Not to mention your ISP has all the same info (with more detail!) and also will give it to the government.
- criddell 3y agoYou're making my point better than I did. The unregulated collection of data on people will lead to real harm. If all that data couldn't lead to real harm, then Google and Meta would have no problem handing it over to whatever authority wants it.

The answer is clearly yes. Therefore users should have control over the data that a company collects about them and their activities.
