      That cannot happen until the dinosaurs in power vacate the positions. Hopefully they are not replaced with new corrupt twats. D & R, they are an embarrassment and do not represent the regular citizen.

      Vote with your money. Apparently, people WANT to have their data harvested. Which goes for anything. Just look at how many people are still using Chrome rather than Brave or Firefox. Or Gmail, Gdrive rather than Protonmail/drive.

        Brave is shady as hell. Use open source firefox builds if possible.

        If voting with your money is a valid way for people to collectively decide right and wrong, does that mean people with more money get more votes?

        Does that mean the people with the most money get the most votes?

        If that’s all true, does that mean if someone has way more money than everyone else, they get to decide what’s right and wrong?

      We’ll have to fight for them since our courts have been loaded with judges who crave industrialist dick.

      However the car companies are glad to abuse their power and sell your data to law enforcement and insurance companies.

      If were diligant and can highlight specific examples about how this policy destroys lives, we might get the right to install our own software into our cars as well as improving right to repair.
