Or, go live in a cave


Google has your data. Amazon has your data. Credit Agencies have your data. Walmart has your data. Every Merchant you have ever done business with it any point in the past has your data. Anyone who's ever bought something for you has given your data to all these people. And they all share with each other, whether you like it or not

Privacy is a myth. The very connectedness and convenience that we so admire in the internet is the exact opposite of the Privacy that we are so afraid of losing now. Barn doors open, horses all over the place, no going back now.
