the usual suspects?

Re: Uber ... this very aggressive growth company sold out its customers to facilitate adoption in urban areas. "let us do business in your city, and we'll supply our customer data to your police" kind of deal.

With some AI companies, the amount of personal data extracted from users is even greater. The same deals involving selling out users' privacy ?

The fact that privacy is so elusive now, alarms me. We need to think twice about what we search for, which browser to use, whether it's worth a trip to the library, etc. Not because I have anything to hide, but because the targeted ads on some topics are so nasty, even borderline abusive. Some forced me to avoid Chrome browser, for sure.

Yeah... it's really dystopian... as if we're getting boiled alive. And nobody seems to care
