I understand the thought process, It's the same one that leads people to say things like why do you care if people spy you already carry around a wiretap everywhere.
I just disagree with it, I understand things are bad and that software spying on us is ubiquitous but that's why we need to fight back wherever we can
I partially agree. Though there is less and less we could do with each coming year :(
To me personally though, you either do care for privacy or you don't. Why even bother doing it a lil? Boycotting WhatsApp but installing some Alexas at home? Would feel like defeat to me. Giving up.
