Not mutually exclusive. I can feel bad for my friends who insist on using WhatsApp, Gmail, Facebook. That's their choice to do. I am not friends with 7bn people. I am extrapolating and considering that majority of humans care more for convenience and much-much-less on Privacy. And since I cannot do anything about it, I am doing what I can do about it. Make sure my family has a better future. People feel both good and bad when eating junk food. In this case, people consume Gmail, and I merely bet on the horse that will most likely win (GAFAM/FAANG). I warn people of the risks of plastering their kids' photos all over the social media - thus potential exposure to pedos. That's also a privacy & safety issue. https://fortune.com/2023/11/27/social-media-addiction-teens-children-facebook-zuckerberg-complaint-lawsuit-age-verification/ https://fortune.com/2023/11/27/social-media-addiction-teens-... https://www.foxnews.com/tech/former-facebook-exec-wont-let-own-kids-use-social-media-says-its-destroying-how-society-works https://www.foxnews.com/tech/former-facebook-exec-wont-let-o... You've been in HN since 2017. You must have seen these/or similar discussions and links. Big bosses of social media don't let their kids consume their own services. Yet these companies make billions. I don't drink coke, pepsi, etc. Many people do. It hurts them. You can't call me out for buying Coke or Pepsi stocks. I feel bad for them, but I feel good for me. I don't push people to use Gmail, that would make me an accomplish. But hey, if they WANT to use Gmail, thank you, I will gladly take that dividend, while some insurance company 30 years from now will screw your kids over the premium for a life insurance, and YOU (the parent) caused it.
