I don’t think most truly understand that corporations don’t follow a moral compass when it comes to respecting boundaries
Yeah, I’m often thinking “am I sounding crazy right now?” when I ever mention that I care about privacy.
I kind of understand the issues with privacy, but not really. What don’t you want online companies to know and why?
I think most people are just overwhelmed most of the time and just want to live their lives and feel connected. There’s no immediate pain of giving up personal information just a vague threat of some future danger. We’re bad at caring about those types of things, generally speaking, just look at how we are handling climate change.
I often wonder if this is some sort of lack of self worth thing. Like, people don’t see their data as important because they don’t see themselves as important in the grand scheme of things? Do they thing one person isn’t gonna change anything?
I get algorithms and shit are designed to be addicted and keep you coming back, but is there a deeper part to this?
Or am I just the crazy one? Does all of this not matter? I mean, I know it doesn’t, in the grand scheme nothing matters. But at this time in space does it matter? My friends enjoy TikTok and Facebook and Twitter and whatever else they use. I do end up being the crazed loser? Is the pool full of piss and I’m in water? Or is it a lemonade pool and I’m full of Powerade piss
Nope. It’s just a convince thing. They aren’t aware what can be done with their data and when they are aware they think “there are millions of people using it so why should MY data be that interesting”
If people are given a choice, they almost always will decline if it’s as convenient as accepting.
you’re only starving yourself of warmth
It’s a brave new world, we’re just old men yelling at clouds.
What we don’t realize is the guy in the center drank a lot of Powerade, and is relieving himself in the lemonade pool.
