It's scary out there, folks.
We are stalked across the digital world, profiled, and sold to the highest bidder
Without our knowledge or consent, companies slurp up huge amounts of data based on our online behavior, what we search for, products we buy, and the things we post on social media.
Corporations use the details of our lives to develop hyper-specific profiles on each one of us to sell us ads and products. AI algorithms predict what we might do next, influence our decisions, and often treat us unfairly based on these detailed dossiers.
Not only does this leave us vulnerable to fraud, scams and identity theft, but just as alarming, our liberty is at stake. Government and law enforcement agencies have easy access to corporate data and everything else online without the 4th Amendment protections otherwise provided to American citizens.
We can do something. We can have agency over our own life without being manipulated, scammed or hoodwinked.
Don’t allow our society to become one where Big Brother watches and Little Pixel wins.
It’s not too late to reclaim your personal information. It’s your data - not theirs.
