People are so oblivious to this shit.

... OK, no, there's a slow dawning that online privacy is important for many reasons, but it never seems to translate into action. Probably largely because there's hardly any consumer alternatives. Employers have been renewing contracts with Big Tech for decades and can't be arsed to even think about changing their behavior.

They're still going to buy new surveillophones just to be able to log in again.
