The beer bottle for our beetle brains. These beautiful bots bemusing these bewildered boomers don't exist.

Sure. If you actively turn it on, and all involved know it's on. But this is always active as far as I'm aware.

I'm guessing it'll be toggle off, and it'll toggle itself back on every update.

In other words, they're taking your data for their use all the time, and sometimes they'll share your data with you.

I'm sure there's more than a little Baader-Meinhof happening. I did expand my privacy a bit; pihole, searxng, some other stuff and I notice it less now. Or I think I do, humans are notoriously bad at this.

Honestly, I thought they already did that.

One of my motivations for becoming more privacy minded, was the amount of times a subject of conversation was delivered through an algorithm later.

It was creepy, talk about hose pipes> receive hosepipe content/ads.

The answer is found in capitalism. Why are gamers, who have continually been fucked by capitalism, so blind at seeing the obvious. '80s game crash: capitalism. Day one DLC: capitalism. Micro transactions: capitalism. All the hardware being hoovered up, so software costs more at every level, increasing prices for both hardware and software: capitalism.
