    I have a choice to who an d which third party collects my data.

    Only if you actually understand what information you are and aren’t exposing about yourself in your every day activities.

    Which… yeah, does really feel like understanding the meaning of a text/concept. So… spot on?

      can’t expose what doesn’t exist. if a site asks for age verification, stop using it and find a alternative that respects privacy.

      your OS starts asking for your identity information, to share with everyone that pokes a open API, it’s time to jump OSs…

      privacy is something you make a best effort to avoid creating obvious methods of exploiting. you don’t share your credit card numbers with every email too, just because they say they cannot prove it was your card on file?

      identity is personal online, no one is entitled to it unless you choose to share it. otherwise it’s a invasion of privacy.

      want to protect kids? educate them and keep them off tiktok/social media by fining the parents when they are identified.

      fined twice? treat the kid like you would any other time a theft of service occurs.
