You've missed the point.
The point is the useful trivia I just told you.
I assume that the downvotes are from you and I notice that you haven't shared the information. I think that is a good and appropriate response. Nothing good can come you sharing this information here. Privacy is appropriate and valuable even for people who are doing nothing wrong and who aren't even particularly interesting.
You're being a dick. All I did was share some info you might have found interesting. Fuck off.
Atticus seemed to be saying that corporations already know everything about you because of your phone and that people are silly to try to protect their privacy, implying that these people are boring and really have nothing worth keeping private.
I was trying to illustrate that people should and actually do value their privacy, and that they should continue to take measures to protect it.
You come in with - bruh, have you ever heard of a phone book?
The info you shared was not interesting and only served to convey your lack of critical thinking ability.
