If you're not paying for it, you're the product. Information may want to be free, but companies want to make a buck off it. And they're being a little too free with my information, if you know what i mean. I DON'T WANT to get all spooky-music, Jarring-chord, 00gy-boogy at you, but have you noticed how much of your life is being quietly handed around without anyone making much palaver?Take Google's new privacy policy, for example. Sure you can choose to opt-out in a couple of ways, but anyone who has an Android phone is no accepting that they will be tracked across the web and across the globe. Many of us may already have suspected that happened, but hey, no it's definite. Yay for transparency right? Except that transparency means very little without the ability to change things.
Still. That's all the bad stuff, yeah? Well, no. Facebook has shut down almost every avenue by which you can get data out of its vast frankensteinian moreass of a site. Instead you send data into a vacuum. Well, if you can call it a vacuum when Facebook is locking
your data up so that it can entice advertisers. Advertisers who then throw 'sponsored stories' out to you on whatever platform you're using right now. So far, so bad.
