I keep looking at all this data collection stuff and wonder if I’m actually crazy to be bothered by it, especially given that I’m totally not a privacy extremist.
Maybe I’m one of the people that doesn’t feel the need to constantly go back to figure out what I did a week ago or whatever, and thus all I’m seeing is a tool that knows more about me than I do, and then puts all that data in a single place that is now the prime target for every malicious actor on the planet.
I used to find stuff like this fascinating. Like if collecting my data can help me, why not? But technology has gotten to a point that it’s just straight up creepy how our every single waking moment can be tracked and collected, even if it’s me collecting it. It’s like watching every dystopian sci-fi story come to life in real time.
Yup. This is how you create a single point of failure when it comes to privacy.
