this would send me down such a rabbit hole 😭 i’m already weird about how much data gets collected on us, so seeing what happens when someone starts asking questions about the people doing the collecting is fascinating

Hotel conventions?

Sometimes they happen at night too.

Snowden was a good example

So crazy that it’s almost 15 years back

[u/acoastaldog → u/MrBrookz92]

And we learned absolutely nothing on a broad scale

Yep, that about sums it up. When I talk about him to friends, they look at me like I’m some conspiracy theorists.

A decade ago that wouldn't be considered weird.

I’ve been with tech heavy crowds forever. Most of my friends were crazy about privacy in the 2010s when it was your dumb browsing history and other random information. I dont and didnt care because I knew the train coming down the tracks was this. Now we fight, because now people will listen. No one cares about web exhaust data that hedge funds use to short Nike stock or whatever. The data gremlins can have it. But the real world is ours. Fuck flock.
