That’s an oversimplified version.

I can’t for the life of me understand how people are ok with companies like FB, Amazon and tiktok getting NSA level access to their lives. It’s crazy. Might as well get tracking devices installed with a 24/7 recording device straight into your brain.
Doesn’t this already happen though? I get ads for things that I’ve searched all the time across platforms and apps. I’m kind of torn...for ads, just target me and show me ads that I’m interested in. Odds are if I looked it up, I’m somewhat interested, so an ad isn’t a big deal.
