Personally I've leaned right into it
I figure Google can help me make my life better if I give it more information, instead of working with incomplete information and giving me weird shit not tailored to my needs

That all being said I do kinda miss seeing new things, and I think that's the danger of these algorithm based things that only show what you're interested in, instead of letting you explore new things and perspectives better

I can browse for whatever I wish without my search history being recorded because my browser is set up to open only on private mode, one of the good things about Firefox.

No I'm totally cool with being a literal pawn in the hands of corporations like Google and Microsoft. As long as they're giving back video games and sitcoms.

Google a little thing called "trackers" and realize you haven't been doing anything to secure your info.

The government should have my information, and that's about it

Resist. They may gather scraps from my online habits (and I don't care who knows that I play/collect games) but without a phone, social media profile, and lots of fake personal info in my accounts I doubt they'll be piecing anything together.

Look, over here the protection of privacy is completely backwards. If you want to get anything from the government you have to go through countless layers of permission slips because none of the various groups are allowed to share information with each other.

For example, if I needed a CT scan or something. The doctor would need privacy consent to inform the government for pricing, and then both would need privacy consent with the actual CT place... that kinda information should just be cloud'd and done.

And yet advertising corporations completely bypass that
