I see your point, and you're right.

But it's so cumbersome to increase the "walls of privacy" endlessly, when privacy is our right. But that's the world we live in, right?

Let's say I use the following to protect myself, my fingerprint - there are questionmarks too to use them:

TOR: - I read that a huge fleet of exit nodes are bad. Probably the Gov. who's paying Millions to infiltrate the network. So, can I really hide my ass using TOR?

VPN: - Same as with any other service. You must trust them that they respect your privacy, don't save data etc.

Blockers/Firerwalls: - One needs technical skills to configure it properly. Luckily I'm able to, but millions of ordianry people don't.

It never ends.

So we have to do our part on our side and learn to live with it, and handle technology better than they do.

Thanks for your comment, very much appreciated.
