Sure it doesn't affect you, but your data is an important statistic to train zuck's algorithm to keep the other rubes, and children, doom scrolling on that shit platform.

In fact, based on a whistleblower testimony zuck would probably sell your data to the CCP to gain access to their population.

I'm sure he'll find unpaid volunteers to carry his ass, that he'll sell out once they reach the bunker.

I think you meant "morale", but moral is so much better.

Putting aside the dystopian angle for a minute, if you knew your data is valuable, would it change your behavior? e.g. if you behaved exactly the same as the median, would your data be valuable to advertisers? They gain no new info from you. Would you behave erratically just to make your data more valuable?

This kind of makes the theft of personal data even more insidious, IMO. Your data is only valuable if you forgot you're being watched.

If the tutorial makes you buy things, it's teaching you how to pay to win 🤷

Or as a Norm MacDonald's joke:

More outstanding research from the University of Scooby-Doo"

echo your $PATH & site-packages after activating venv. The activation logic does some juggling with the PATH so maybe pandoc slipped out?
