Do you prefer to give your personal id to any site in the world instead of using the same app which you pay your taxes with?
I'd prefer my internet free...
Like other medias before, internet probably has reached a need for some harder control. I'm not talking about porn, I'm talking about disinformation, bots and soon AI.
Not sure which is the best way but I'll not give any id or credit card to any randim site in order to see their content.
I agree we need to get rid of all the bullshit you mentioned - but I don't think giving up our anonymity or more gated communities (like facebook, twitter, instgram and all those fucked up places) are the solution.
The effect is still the same these companies are given access to my personal information because the government wants to monitor our activity online
Well, actually anybody is trying to monitor your activity online in this moment. But thinking to what Trumo is doing right now probably I wouldn't like to do it as well.
