RE: Sites selling your data aren't evil

in #technology6 years ago

Its not the monetising of other people's content without compensation that is evil. That's just an unsustainable business model.
Even the fact that their algorithms try to addict people to wasting time on their platforms is a morally dubious business practice, not real evil.

The real evil bit is the way they misuse their huge power to destroy online freedom (and thus freedom generally) by censoring their competitors (eg the Crypto Ad Ban) and political viewpoints that vary from their very narrow one (especially conservative & libertarians but also alternate left wing viewpoints).

That's why JPB Liberty is enabling everyone in Crypto to claim damages against them by Joining the Class Action against the Crypto Ad Ban.
Its anonymous, no win no fee and you even got bonus tokens for signing up.

You're completely right. That's why I've already joined you when I first saw your post months ago about how We're suing Facebook & Google for $300 Billion! - Want a part of the action? and I'm glad you get the opportunity to talk about it in my post. All that I'm saying here is the data selling by itself isn't evil.

Thanks. You are quite right.
