Privacy is not an all or nothing proposition. We are past the age that one can live anonymously in this world, but does not mean it is in our best interest to participate in the mass data collection and profiling done by large corporations.

There’s plenty of ways you can opt-out of these nefarious practices, especially if you live in a GDPR country.

If it doesn’t bother you - great! Live your life. It bothers me, so I choose to opt out.
