With the tech companies continuing to steal as much as possible of our personal data, the general public has become jaded thinking that there\u2019s nothing really bad going to personally happen to them as a consequence. This shortsighted view is proven wrong as hackers can cause virtually unlimited grief with enough of your personal info.<\/p>\n
Should anyone disagree, there is ample proof of why all personal data collected should be permanently deleted by law and prohibited, again by law, that no one can even willingly give away their rights to privacy.<\/p>\n
Amazing to me is the rise and use of self-destructive programs that do nothing but collect every single thing you watch\/travel to\/search\/eat\/buy and more. Vast numbers of folks willingly<\/em> giving away their privacy and safety to watch videos.<\/p>\n If this info wasn\u2019t important for enemies, why would there be such a gigantic effort to get this info? Consider if you\u2019ve given China access to essentially everything<\/em> you do \u2026 why would you assume this doesn\u2019t matter?<\/p>\n This is the paradox of TikTok \u2026 by using their apps or having their cookies and other hidden info stealing extensions in your browser, you\u2019re given them the permission to track your life \u2026 why would you think this is good for you? Very literally EVERYTHING you do online is cataloged and stored in China for future use. Please let me know when any communistic dictator has ever done anything to make anyone\u2019s life better. If your movements and actions aren\u2019t important, why is a foreign government spending untold billions to collect as much personal information about you as possible?<\/p>\n So, here\u2019s the confounding question \u2026 why would millions of people install what is very literally spyware on their phones or computers?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" With the tech companies continuing to steal as much as possible of our personal data, the general public has become jaded thinking that there\u2019s nothing really bad going to personally happen to them as a consequence.
