I really didin't think about this. But yeah no privacy left. On the other hand, why would I be interesting for someone? I'm just an ordinary person living my modest life.
This topic is not just for someone, but for everyone, including you. Privacy and security are always in par with one another, the moment that you care for life, your friends, and your family, is the moment that you will consider to have a fight when it comes to this matters. As I've said, security and privacy are always intact, they can be either directly proportional, or inversely proportional, but they won't be separated.
I wouldn't call targeted marketing such a great thing, looking at some products just once will likely keep them in your recommendation list for a long time. The rise of a lot of different VPN companies shows in my opinion that the is a huge demand for privacy in the internet. People are willing to pay for such privacy and the more our data is getting exploited the higher the demand for security from such marketing companies.
Wrong education and advertisement about privacy and security speaks words here with the VPN situation. VPNs are sometimes worse than not using anything at all. A lot of them
actually keep logs of everything you do.
VPNs are the same way we've been wrongfully taught about internet privacy and anonymity as we'll be taught about CBDCs being better than BTC and privacy coins. The vast majority will fall for it.
This is what I've been actually trying to understand, they can easily breach the your system, cause you are using their software. So internet privacy is somehow, and something you choost to give, and accept. This is also why most of the sites needed you to agree to their license agreement, most with sketchy statements.
On the other hand, I do not personally think that this will cost us something more than what we can risk. It is the same as putting your documents in the cabinet where burglers can steal it personally, the only difference is that we are now storing it on what we call "Private Clouds", and hard drives.
