But in two decades, after your data has been sold and bought countless times, to who knowns which government? In 30 years, when I'm nearing retirement, I have no idea which political system I will live in, what power companies will have over my daily life, or who has bought all the data mined about me.
Best case I will not get any insurance because I googled some weird disease symptoms in 2018, for worst case scenarios just look 30 years back in Eastern Europe.
And then what does said government do with that data? They can buy and sell my information all they want. I don't care. Nothing has happened to me. Nothing will happen to me. I only wish I started a business to cater to people who live with such great fear as so many companies have been doing for the past 10 years or so.
The boogie man went away when I turned five years old.
Your analogy is poor. I didn't say I left my computer wide open for bad guys to look at. I said I don't care if they publish my address in the phone book.
Is this a challenge?
