I am still not sure if saying and doing is the same thing, specifically in this case when more data means more money for Facebook. And this is not just about Facebook, but to any service that claims they won't log or store my data. At

A close friend of mine, when we were 21, had heart attack and passed away. No family history of heart attacks, he was in excellent shape (cycling was his life) and just randomly out of the blue. I do try to stay fit and eat healthy but ther

Something related: it doesn't inspire confidence when the person who runs UIDAI (the government organization running the fingerprint program) says this: https://www.ndtv.com/india-news/aadhaar-data-safe-behind-5-i.

And it is the current party that was parading the dangers of Aadhar when they were in opposition. I like how you gave a completely one-sided view of the story. There have been documented cases of Aadhar misuse and personal information being
