Not a fans of these people saying how bad thing are but refuse to elaborate. Like sure, i know ads and socmed company will collect my data piece by piece and put it together to know who i am and target me with stupid ads, but i also love to know if there's more to it. It's not to convince me but it's to convince others.

Can't find it rn but there was a mastodon post a while back about a surveillance program using data sold for advertising purposes. Maybe someone remembers what it's called. The degree of information that program advertised as being able to find was insane.
