Corporations are bad, politicians are bad, yes. But if you can't even be bothered to delete social media and predatory apps/services that pimp your data out to the government, you are in fact lazy. Deleting your accounts is simple. Only a few clicks through the settings. Idk where this cope came from where its literally impossible to detach from it. These companies are never going to play by our rules, so I think we can stop pretending they will.

If you're worried about your career, just keep your linkedin profile barebones. If you require a fb, twitter, snapchat, tiktok, etc to maintain a professional career, you prob don't care about privacy in the first place, because you're in marketing or social media, or trying to be an influencer.
