Is your new car going to be as bad as facebook / Google / ?
What was the question? Basically, the latest tech. companies use you as the user as the product - yes, everyone knows that - however, they wrap it up, they put you into a nice walled garden where you feel it's okay to keep popping in and out and you know, the app is where all the "other people are"... so you kind of have to go there, don't you... and well, if it costs you a bit of invisible data, what's the harm? I'll just leave this here: Now, there's not a lot we can do about companies like facebook - they provide a distraction service, where they crave you attention span. The young'ens can replace facebook with TikTok or whatever fad is currently doing the rounds. As we know the Gen Z-ers have an attention span of a gnat - they probably wouldn't have read this far before going off and checking something else that notified them that something else was far more important and needs their sole focus and attention for the next 60 seconds...before.....
