I'm not comfortable with capitalism, but last I checked all the users of xwitter, Facebook, reddit, cigarettes, roblox, TikTok... This app... Are all comfortable with it. So really they should put their money better places than a repeat abuser.
Huh? That's all why we're here across the Lemmyverse, no? We are already smarter than the average person over privacy concerns, sure, but that doesn't make them "dumb." I think it's really unfair to look down on the average citizen versus highly specialized, predatory algos and deceptive services. Or do you think you're scam-proof and everyone who is less has only themselves to blame? I once thought I was, yet have had some near-wakeup calls.
