The comment I'm responding to contains unstated assumptions promoting the surveillance industry, at a time when many people are realizing they don't want to be part of it. We should be clear that this distinction exists, lest we keep giving a pass to misleading corporate statements in the spirit of Google's "don't be evil" that tricks naive developers into building more surveillance systems.



I was joking, but there is little in terms of life- /commerce- /click-flow (outside of maybe Europe, and maybe healthcare in the US) that prevents me from surveilling you any way I can. If I have a popular health app, I can surveil even more if you click "accept" to a ToS.
