People on sites like this really need to understand that for good or bad we are a vocal minority. People by and large understand "if you aren't paying for it you're the product". Many people have come to terms with this be it reddit, or Facebook, Amazon, Google, etc.

Does it make it right? Or course it doesn't.

But I seriously don't know, outside of a serious privacy breach involving hundreds of deaths, how do we effectively change the narrative in a way the masses can not only consume but understand?

I'm in my echo chamber here but at the same time I've come to terms that if it's online expect it to be sold and nothing is private.

we should be paid our fair share for every data point they collect.

And every time they sell it, every transaction it leads to.
