Yes, when the Borg came to earth and the people chose to assimilate. Resistance would have been futile.

Throw a brick at Windows to brick it.

If that's all true, does that mean if someone has way more money than everyone else, they get to decide what's right and wrong?

That's indeed the mechanism that is used to get to the situation we are in.

Money, based on quantity, is worthless to us filthy commoners. But it's fundamentally a representation of your time and attention; the only currency that matters.

Laws will not help to solve anything. Not only is it supposed to represent the same collective you just described as making bad decisions, they are administered by government, which in turn is a mechanism for business to advance.

Even chickenfeed laws to "better privacy" when corporation like Google gets out of hand won't help in the long term.

The ONLY solution is proper education. Not in government schools (which produces mindless consumers), but by spreading this information yourself.

And nobody said it's going to be easy when you're up against the limitless money press big business has access to.

Vote with your money. Apparently, people WANT to have their data harvested. Which goes for anything. Just look at how many people are still using Chrome rather than Brave or Firefox. Or Gmail, Gdrive rather than Protonmail/drive.
