Let me be more direct. Here is the situacion. Big companies are spying on people and use that informacions directly against you.
People dont know that this is happenening so they cant be mad about it. If you explain to someone what is going on anyone will be mad and say no am not allowing this any more. But the thing is, even when one realises what is going on they dont see any way how to stop that. Thats why many people say that is shit but we cant stop it no matter what we do, so lets pretend it doesnt exist. Only knowledge is opsticle between our freedom and us. Nothing else… Ofcourse we can stop spying on us, but for that you first need to understand how spying works.
Noone is braking ito your system and stealing informacion about you. No the sustem you are using is collecting that info and sending it wilingly! Am talking about Windows here, Mac os and on boile devoces Android and Ios. Linux on pc doesnt do that, graphine os on mobile is not doing that, but people dont know it.
People need to realise what open source software is. Because eweryone are using software so much these days, so they need to know some thing about the stuff that they are using…

Tell me, if i spy on you ewery day after work when you are unlocking your bicycle to go home, and each day i see one more number, so at the end of the week i know whole passcode for unlocking your bibycle.
Did i not violate your privacy and security just because you dont know that i was spying on you??
Great that your old ones have realised it but unfortinatly those are rare individuals. I remember when they started prompting people to acept cookies, people started avoiding that exceptence even thoy its taking third of the screen on mobile devices. So that clearly shows that when they tell you this is for spying on you, acsept it. People are refusing to do that even when it its painful to use website like that. Means it does matter to people, and they are willing to sacrifice something to achive privacy, but before noone told them that there is tracking and asked them to allow or not allow that.
