I’m registered with, and have been happily using for many years, all of the companies you mentioned (and a dozen more). I want them to know a lot about me so hopefully they show me relevant ads (I buy a lot of stuff) or provide better service. My digital life is great. Please tell me why should I change it?
- nusl 3y agoYou’re pretty much the model consumer for these companies. So, well done I suppose. On the why; up to you. Depends on how much you value your privacy or trust the companies with your data. If you’re fine with them knowing your whole life, that’s fine too.
- bcye 3y agoI did not want to ask anyone to change it with the question, heck I'm not sure I want to with all the conveniences they provide - there's a reason why basically everyone has at least one account with big tech. Still, I think it's chilling to think how over the course of two decades you've gone from a world with no big data/companies controlling you, to it being the norm (and very hard not to) have an account with at least one of them. Aside from privacy - just the control they have with no negotiation power on your side, from TOS and privacy policy, to randomly being able to ban your account with no recourse is chilling.
- runjake 3y agoNobody is asking you to change. OP is just asking a question.
