Really? Throw a CEO in jail? This is just as crazy as the whole throw the supervisor in jail if the worker dies mantra in construction.

#1 users are responsible to look after their privacy. If you are using applications that don’t allow this - you need to reject the use of those applications.

#2 this needs to start happening in mass numbers. People need to rise up against these crazy corporate tech companies and their bull

I would love to live in a world where everyone did that. But that's (currently) a utopian pipe dream.

I don't know if throwing CEOs in jail is the answer, but neither is putting all the responsibility on people to make tough choices like "give up my privacy or fall out of touch with my friends" or "give up my privacy or give up the chance to get this job".

Well, we are currently at the "we tried nothing and we are out of ideas" stage so something needs to change.
