I believe part of the solution-- that big tech hates-- is AI bots that pretend to be us and provide so much noise they make the signal difficult to find. An example would be browser plug ins that "click everything". If an AI bot clicks on every ad and signs you up for every free service and fills a lot of forms with incorrect data the value of surveillance is much lower.
The problem with this is Google in particular hates it. If they think you are using bots in this way they will ban you from all of their services. I have heard that. I don't know if it is true but don't want to risk it.
