Most of the world is by definition ignorant of data privacy.
Absolutely.
It doesn't take a genius to understand it, just someone who is not ignorant.
But, by all means, continue to give your data to whoever you want to.
If you aren't ignorant, than you are stupid.
You know the stove is hot and are showing your palm into it. That isn't ignorance.
Most mankind is ignorant to data privacy, and that says nothing to their intellect.
See, you are trying to debate whether the stove top is hot or not.
I'm not going to debate that because its quite apparent what these companies, and by extensions governments, do with this data.
You are allowed to touch a hot stove. You are not allowed to debate whether or not it's hot.
Like I said, touch that stove, knowing it's hot if you want, I can't stop you.
