    There is a 3rd argument which I think is a bit more valid in “I value the service I receive in exchange for my personal data”

    Using the internet without an adblocker, noscript, and whatever else is really nasty. But even if you aren’t on these platforms, marketers are still building profiles on you. Honestly we need data privacy legislation and some real talk about marketing and the costs of using the internet as a society.

      That argument pisses me off.

      “I don’t mind so fuck you.”

      If you want to use those services, that’s your business. But I don’t use those services; they still keep my data.
