Well this is the thing here. We're in an era of time in technology where we DON'T want people having as much of our data. Whether it's for good or bad use, we just don't want it. How hard is that for these companies to comprehend?

The internet was fine without this sort of thing. We were fine without AI. Why complicate it at all?
