    Then sell all your shit and live without any device connected to the internet. If you believe a trillion dollar company can’t track what you like then I’ve got bad news for you.

    Oh wait, even if you sell your shit, they just need to know who your friends are and they can create a profile of you… Woops! 🤷

    What’s funny is that you’re trusting a bunch of random Lemmy hosts right now, but not companies that can be identified and that you can tell which laws apply to them.

        Individuals can’t be corrupted in exchange for money, good to know 👍

        I’m sure they would also protect your data with their life if authorities came knocking.

            I just think the privacy crowd is mostly wackos that believe in the privacy fairy, that’s all 🤷 Taking tons of measures to not have their data seen by others but still participating in public forums… If your privacy is so important then stay offline.

              You mistake (best case scenario) a desire for privacy with perfect anonymity. It is perfectly sane to wish to engage in public discourse without being milked by ad companies. The fact that most platforms make this stupidly difficult is no reason to dismiss everything we say as nonsense. Do get a grip, please.

          Wtf are you talking about? No one its exempt from authorities search , if a government wants you they will find you. We are against companies!! Not governments. You just want to be against open source free software if you want to pay for an app go ahead but stop minimizing people that wants privacy.

            Oh so it’s anti capitalism now? So it’s ok to let any random stranger have your data as long as it’s not big data hoarder? 🤔

              Anti capitalism? I dont want companies tracking me. I dont care about capitalism or not. I hate when companies track me , and when they go against innovation , freedom for the consumer to choose, and create monopolies. Monopolies are not part of capitalism , that kills competition and the free market.

      I am self hosting my instance , how ignorant you can be. And even if I have my account on a server do you think a regular person would care or have the capacity to create a profile on me. I do believe a trillion company can track me and its not 100% but the less they have the better. Also why does it matter to you? Fuck off. Laws? No law can apply to this coporporations.
