I don't really treat it like an identity, but more and more, yes.
> If so, why and how?
- Everything spews telemetry which ends up with data brokers and by proxy, various nation-states.
- Everything is software-based. If you work in or with software developers, you'll have an idea how bad it is. I can't trust that code, even when its not vibecoded.
How?
- By reducing usage of and dependence on tech products where feasible.
- By selecting low-tech product alternatives. My appliance don't need wi-fi. If I can't get an appliance without wi-fi, it's never going to be connected to wi-fi.
