It’s even worse than that; it’s what some of the data is being used FOR.... like taking down our democracy. Shadow data mining is more than a money-maker; it’s a political weapon with power to propagandize and manipulate beyond what most people realize.
Facebook is now worth $650 billion largely due to the monetization of our data. How much of that value are users seeing? At this point Facebook should be paying users for the privilege of using our data.

@AndrewYang Wow! I've been saying that for a long time. Our identity should belong to us and we should be paid for the privilege of it being used. Technology has become more about data collection than the individual and costs time, money and aggravation daily. It's a pet peeves.

Absolutely Marianne. Thank you so very much for sharing these and other “Big Truths” that have been and are orchestrating our societies. We are awakening and the powers that be are loosing their grip.

This is why I think we need an ethical and spiritually-based infrastructure to promote truth & real data supports the collective power of right-minded citizens to find suitable candidates for elective, promote their campaigns & create a better world. saveourhomeworld.org
