@marathon @freemo "Likely" is a word we use when there is *risk* involved. Of course you don't know what happens inside that company (trade secrets are not public). It's completely foolish to assume a tech giant has your interests in mind, particularly when they've proven to be untrustworthy (they were caught doxxing a child porn whistleblower to the perp). And you think ppl should trust them?

@freemo @marathon And you expect ppl to find that risk reasonable, when the reward is a drop-in-the-ocean vote? It's a rock-stupid risk to take.

If the risk your talking about is "they are a large company and use equations on their data".. then that is no risk at all IMO.. if the risk you are talking about is "They have doxxed people and therefore arent a trustworthy company" then I would agree with your concerns.. really depends on the argument your coming from.

But yea my data is free for them to do with as they will, that is no risk, if i didnt want them to have any data about me (like my ip and location) I wouldnt give to them (and therefore use a vpn).

I presume any data I provide on the internet is for the infrastructures I use to use however they state they will use, and I have absolutely no problem with companies using my data as I am more than capable of obscuring the data I do not wish them to use. If they block my means of obfuscation (as sometimes happens) then the problem resolves itself, I dont use their services by default.
