    When I google myself, the only stuff that comes up are my old social media accounts that I have set to private and I don't even use anymore. You also won't be able to find anything with my legal name (not even if you use my real government name). Let me explain: so I got 4 baptism names, and usually the name you call someone is one of those baptism names or derived from it. For example, Peterus can be Peter or Pieter (you get the drift.) Well, my call name isn't derived from my 4 baptism names, not even the slightest.

    Everything is about getting you to buy. That's the nefarious reason your data is sold. The security issue comes that because your data circulates, it could be hacked, copied or otherwise used by people who wish you harm.

    I live in a country where a lot of data is free to find if you ask for it. There's more trust here in government and regulation. There is also other security measures which make a ton more sense.

    One that I wish we still had was when you order anything online, you got a temporary card with a specific number generated by your bank. Said card would be unusable and deleted in hours after creation. No putting in your debit card number, just a temp generated one approved by your bank that connected to your account.

    Now we have something where you sign in with a government regulated thing instead and approve with a code. It's better than only putting in your card info and hopping it doesn't get keylogged, but it's not as good (as far as I'm aware, maybe the new one is safer and the other one was less secure somehow) as the previous way.

    Thing is, I trust government more than corporations. Government has it's own motives, but selling you things is not one of them. Information is more for security purposes.

    it's a lesser of two evils as they say. I do not understand why people trust nestle (literally killed 10 million babies and that's not an exaggeration. CEO also said water isn't a human right.), kroger, bank of America, unilever, axe foods, mondel etc more than a government. If the government is owned by those corporations, then I get it. Or if it's corrupt entirely like Russia or similar. But that's usually because gangs/cartels and/or corporations own the government and want profit.

    USA government is very bought and sold by corporations.

    Also, data collection has been going on a LOT longer than people think. Digital made it easier, but it did not cause it.

    Last but not least, if you are on the internet or purchase things (even no online) there is data about you up the wazoo. If someone really wanted to, they could find who I am. If someone in passing was just curious, just the information I gave you can find which country I'm talking about that I reside in.

    Anything you share becomes information for others. Most people don't have nefarious intent, but the point is, when you exist in society, you are traceable. You are apart of a system of some kind. You are never off grid unless no one knows you even exist. This doesn't have to be a bad thing, but because of the motivations of our society, make money forever against laws of entropy or thermodynamics or anything that clearly states infinite growth paradigm is impossible, we have to deal with this as a result.

    I know it's controversial of an opinion, but when we get to a point where people don't understand the tech (AI making AI in the sci-fi level people imagine, not the small black box it is now) I actually trust that more, because an AI that is actually AGI not just "Yes sir" response control and thinks would have a way to keep data and use it with no human understanding it. You'd need clearance and the tech would be so advanced humans wouldn't be able to actually crack it anymore because it wouldn't be made by them.

    It's other people I'm afraid of and how they use tech created to make others miserable or try to sell them dumb stuff. People are scared of tech, I'm scared of the people who use the tech for bad things. A knife doesn't scare me. Someone wielding one with a crazed look in their eye scares me.

    Oh, side note on the listening thing. No active human is listening. That's insanely resource intensive and much easier to call a infraction of law about. A predictive algorithm tracks your habits and communicates with others that do the same. That's why you'll get an ad that correlates to something you talked about.
    Humans are very predictable. It's why a word prediction algorithm that's been around for 50+ years is able to talk to you and it makes sense most of the time. This tech is old, but our ability to use it was limited due to resource costs in what computers could do.

    Also, Adblockers. I hope some law passes through that finally settles if it is illegal or not to use or to block adblock. Companies argue about intellectual property stolen, but also refuse to take responsibility for all the phishing, viruses and blatant NSFW ads they promote. Adblock protects your computer. Lots of ads have viruses.

    Second, you should be able to choose directly what ads are relevant to you or boycott certain companies from being advertised. Especially ones regarding consumer power and also mental/physical wellbeing like recovering addicts should be able to refuse to engage in anyway to alcohol or gambling ads.

    if companies are going to try to say it's illegal to use, then they should be forced to give control to consumers on how they engage with ads. Any infraction of reported and verified spreading of phishing, viruses or NSFW ads shown to minors should be met with a hefty AF fine that cancels out the profit they get from playing the ad.

    Will this reduce revenue from ads? Of course. But all the companies want to have their cake and eat it too. They can go cry in the corner of their third mansion with the shareholders and board members about it.

    I hate to do this but please do some research into the social credit score program. It does not exist even close to the way that it's been falsely reported and the claim that China has a program like this was debunked years ago. There's a reason that all of the sources you can find on articles discussing it are other English articles from western sources. There's much bigger problems to worry about in China, spreading misinformation muddies the water.

    My bank account was getting hacked multiple times a year and I finally went to the bank and asked why this was happening so often and apparently there’s a feature where if you have a bank app on your phone (at least for Apple) they will sell your bank info and the only way to stop this is going to your bank and having them mess with your accounts settings but they don’t tell you this happens you have to ask

    I want the first law that has anything to do with bio-metric data to be that as soon as someone is born, they have copyrights on their own data, effective for everyone retroactively. I want to get paid royalties anytime a billion dollar company buys or sells my personal data, and that back pay is gonna be sweet.
