"i have nothing to hide anyways"
"theyre tracking me anyways so it doesnt matter"
"i dont do anything illegal so i dont care if im being tracked"
these quotes make my blood boil
I've also heard
"I'm not important enough for anyone to care what I'm doing."
I'm like honey this shit is automated at population scale. You don't have to be important. You only have to be a human.
I've recently realized that people have no idea how algorithms work. It's also eye-opening when you realize how poorly educated many people are and how bad the literacy rates are.
I've tried as hard as I can to help people around me. They just don't get it. I've provided alternatives and told them they fund fascism when giving info away. I've been trying to help the "I have nothing to hide" club for 15 years now. It's just no use. I have failed to convince a single person.
