Right but so are people. This was all inevitable from the start. Much worse stuff is coming. People should have been embracing methods to avoid this stuff decades ago. I'm not just talking about using a fucking ad blocker. There needed to be measures to fuck with data collection. Become hostile to any site's or content creators looking to sell viewers anything. Run applications that could feed junk data back to sites.
Had people started earlier they wouldn't be facing the giant industry that grew out of a digital spaces that welcomed the things that eventually grew into this data collection beast we all knew were coming.
