Not a single friend or family member gives two shits about privacy. When I tell them about what companies know about them and what they do with that information, it’s kind of like a vegan telling a meat eater where their meat comes from. Like “wow that sounds bad but I’m not willing to make any changes”. The only difference is that instead of animals being a product, this time they are the product.

    I just do that so the cat doesn't stare awkwardly at me while I poo.

    When he doesn't try and take a look in the bowl during the action, at least.

    same. Someone I know, this morning, said "oh I just got on threads", and "everyone is there", and worse "the only reason I know about it is because you told me." The thing is, 1. Threads is a Meta project, 2. I told them about it in the context of this huge discussion on the fediverse about defedding from corporate social media, in which the VAST MAJORITY agree that federating with corp social media is bad plan. sigh.
