When I talk about digital privacy, there is always some smug genius who shrugs and tells me, "Who cares? We all know we don't have any privacy anyway." Nothing could be more wrong. Convincing you that the fight is already over to the way people in power get you to stop resisting.
@evacide@michellemoldofsky Be curious if those same people would be cool with showering or pooping out in the open or sharing their bank card PIN in their bio info.
@evacide@cyberlyra when I talk about how we can change a few habits to improve privacy and minimize digital harms to others people shrug and say, it’s too inconvenient. Aghh!
This is how they got us, people! They know we won’t break their looms this time because we are addicted to them.
@evacide I assure you, they arent a genius and I know you are being sarcastic, I just felt someone had to speak for the human brain which most tech bros dont have, just a tape worm with a keyboard
@evacide i just had that conversation the other day i need a 5 minute comedy routine that points out what is wrong with this who cares about privacy argument..:anyone got any leads?
Also so what if they think "I have nothing to hide" (they actually do). It's pretty easy to understand that many (really all) people have very reasonable, legal, and valid reasons to have some privacy.
@mabs@Salty@shermozle@JessicaTaylor@evacide probably only works in relatively hospitable climates. Where I am a valid response would be "So I don't freeze to death" depending on the season
